The inaugural Honor #25 Team awards ceremony was overshadowed by Covid-19. No in-person event occurred and sadly no official team photo was taken. Instead, Honor #25 made the best of an unpleasant circumstance & celebrated via Zoom. This team will always be very special.  Each team member knew Jon Jon personally and appreciated his love of life and his never-ending commitment to friendship and teamsmanship.   

Connor Trumpy, Honor #25 Scholarship Winner

Connor was a fixture in Camp Hill athletics and played for the football, basketball and track teams.  Connor's coaches valued his leadership and motivational attitude which allowed him to push teammates to be their very best. Connor's response to what it meant to be a Camp Hill athlete was short, sweet, and to the point  - "being with my best friends all the time."  Connor, without a doubt, exemplifies the Honor #25 spirit and we are so proud of him being the inaugural scholarship winner.   Memories of Connor and Jon Jon as the "twin towers" in basketball will never be forgotten. 

Additional Team Members: Erik Blanton, Greg LaBine, Frank Shartle, Allison Confair (not pictured) and Ava Spitzer (not pictured)

Jackson Thompson, Honor #25 Scholarship Winner 

Jackson played baseball, basketball and golf during his high school career. While a major contributor in all three sports, he excelled at baseball and is continuing his love for the game at Campbell University, a D1 program that is lucky to have Jackson.  Coaches offered ringing endorsements about Jackson, describing him as “being at his best when his best is needed,” consistently displaying sportsmanship and serving as an excellent role model. One of Jackson’s favorite Camp Hill memories was "defeating Trinity, a major Camp Hill Rival, at a home basketball game his freshmen year and having Jon Jon by his side to celebrate the victory.” Congratulations Jackson on a well-deserved recognition.

Additional Team Members: Emma Guerin, Maya Forte, Anna Long & Andrew Spaan

Ducky Mueller, Honor #25 Scholarship Winner 

 Ducky played soccer and tennis during his high school career and is studying at Slippery Rock University.  His goal is to become a physical education teacher and the qualities that landed him the scholarship will serve him well in this capacity.   Ducky's coaches shared that he was "selfless player, sacrificing a lot individually, while being vital tot he team's success" and that he "mastered that fine line of balancing playing hard and having fun with his teammates and doing anything for anyone on the team which is a great attribute to have in a player."  One of Ducky's favorite Camp Hill memories is time spent at the Bucknell Team Soccer camps. He shared that the good memories are not necessarily the ones on the field; he loved even more the bonding time with his friends and building a family within the group.  

Additional Team Members: London Harper, Christian Doi, Bramley Hawkins & Maddie Newman

Luke Parise, Honor #25 Scholarship Winner 

Luke played baseball and football all 4-years of his high school career and heads to St. Joe's this fall to play baseball for the Hawks.  Luke's coaches described him as "the kid with all the obvious athletic talent but the care he has for his teammates it what makes him truly special" and as a "team-first guy he makes human connections at all levels with everyone on the team."   Luke defines a winning season as one in which every kid on the team gets the chance to play, each player gets better as an athlete and a person, and relationships with teammates and coaches are positive and supportive even if the season wasn't the best in terms of your win-loss record.  

Additional Team Members: Alice Benavides, Claire Brosius, Nick Crosby, and Benjamin Ellis.
