SAC Sound-Off: Now we're the seniors

June 21, 2012

For our final MHSAA Student Advisory Council Sound-off of the 2011-12 school year, we asked our juniors -- now seniors-to-be -- what they are looking forward to most in 2012-13.

Like students all over the state, our SAC members also are enjoying summer break. But check back this fall for more peer perspectives from our 16 seniors and juniors.

I'm most looking forward to ...

"... being a leader in the classroom, a leader on the court and having underclassmen look up to me for support." -- Elle Lehman, Portland St. Patrick

"... just enjoying my final year of high school sports, and also trying to figure out where I want to go to college. I also really am excited about being a leader on my teams." -- Taylor Krumm, Walled Lake Central

"... to being Big Man on Campus." -- Thye Fischman, Vandercook Lake

"... my senior golf season and our run at a state championship." -- Abby Radomsky, Kalamazoo Hackett Catholic Central

"... meeting the new juniors," -- Evan Lamb, Rogers City

"... taking a bigger leadership role on my cross country team and enjoying my last year of high school sports." -- Carly Joseph, Pontiac Notre Dame Prep

SAC Sound-off: Live from Breslin

This week we introduce Portland St. Patrick junior Elle Lehman, who not only assisted with the MHSAA's Class D trophy presentation Saturday -- but also played against eventual champion Waterford Our Lady in Thursday's Semifinal at the Breslin Center.

Elle Lehman, Portland St. Patrick junior

  • Sports: Basketball and softball
  • Non-sports activities: Student council, National Honors Society
  • Favorite classes: World Literature. You have a chance to express your voice in different, creative ways.
  • Must-see TV: "Family Guy” or “That 70s Show”
  • One shining moment: My favorite high school sports highlight would have been in the 1999 Class D girls basketball state championship when there was a few seconds left and St. Pat threw the ball in and it bounced off of someone’s foot, and then we scored!!
  • What’s next: I am not sure what school, but I would like to study pre-medicine and play softball in college – then eventually possibly become an orthopedic surgeon.
  • My favorite part of game day is: ... hearing our fans cheer! I love the atmosphere when you are down on the court and everyone around you is yelling and cheering.
