Yorkville Middle School Cross Country

Congrats, Julia Megazzini!

February 5, 2013

For the second time in three years a YMS cross country runner has been named Yorkville Middle School's nominee for the IESA Scholar Attitude Award. All of the coaches at YMS voted for one student/athlete and Julia Megazzini was the nearly unanimous choice to represent our school.

Alexx Nauman and Maddie Dearborn also earned votes to be our school's nominee, which says a lot about them as well since coaches from other sports nominated them.

There are a number of qualifications for an IESA Scholar nominee:

  • They must be in 8th grade
  • They must have participated in an IESA sport for two years
  • They must have a minimum GPA of 3.5
  • They must demonstrate outstanding citizenship 

Julia is certainly deserving as a 2-year member of the cross country team. She was one of our team captains for two years and displayed outstanding leadership skills in helping our girls team earn top 10 finishes at State the past two years. We are extremely proud of Julia for earning this nomination and we wish her luck as the award winners will be announced next month.
