Emily Nykorchuk

College Vision
Student Athlete of the Month
Park View High School
April 2009
Softball

“Emily Nykorchuk is a sophomore who took over the catcher
position this year. Park View has been blessed to have senior catchers
for the past three years but this year, there was a change. Emily stepped
in right from the start and never looked back. Her defensive abilities
and handling of the pitchers has been mature beyond her experience and the team
has united around her. Through the first sixteen games, Emily has played
errorless ball and missed only one game, due to a broken nose. She has
done everything asked of her and then some and is one of the hardest workers on
the team. Her efforts and attitude have allowed the coaching staff to
focus on other areas of improvement because she IS the Park View catcher.
Her grades are outstanding and she is active in the music community at Park
View. She was also recently named to the Language Honor Society. Park
View would like to recognize Emily Nykorchuk as an unsung athlete who is
deserving of recognition and this honor.”
