She told the Lions, "I'm very proud to receive this award My high school days have been over for awhile and it's nice to be remembered.

Athletics have helped shape my values and helped me keep everything in perspective. It's nice to get award like this for something I enjoy so much." Prank Salvato was in charge of the dinner.
