Carson Emery, a 2023 Whiteoak graduate, was honored June 27 as a 2023 OHSAA/SEDAB Scholar-Athlete Scholarship Recipient, according to a post by the Southeast District Athletic Board.
During the OHSAA Scholar-Athlete Banquet, 18 representatives from Southeast District schools were each awarded a $1,000 scholarship and a $100 gift card. According to the OHSAA, “Recipients are selected based on a point system which rewards students for grade point averages; class rank; community service; varsity letters earned; and individual and team athletic honors. The number of scholarship recipients from each district are based upon the number of schools within the district.”
Scholarships are awarded to graduating seniors, who must have a GPA of at least 3.25 and a minimum of three varsity letters in one OHSAA-sanctioned sport or four varsity letters in a combination of any two or more OHSAA-sanctioned sport.
Emery was a member of Whiteoak’s varsity golf, basketball and baseball teams.
