It’s official. Ricky Zorn has been selected to receive the National High School Scholar-Athlete Award from the National Football Foundation. Ricky was chosen from among five other outstanding student athletes as the southern region’s pick, based on academic achievement, athletic accolades and community involvement. Five national winners – one from each region – will receive the honor.
Ricky, named “Mr. LHHS” by last year’s senior class, and his parents will travel to New York City to attend the awards luncheon in December. He’ll enjoy first-class accommodations at the Waldorf-Astoria before heading back to classes and football practice at Harvard. Congratulations, Ricky!
