Cameron Ramaekers

High School: Papillion-LaVista
Sport: Tennis
Cameron is a fantastic athlete, but it's not just his performance on the court that he's admired for. On Friday afternoons Cameron helps his tennis coach by volunteering his time to work with younger players. His coach says the kids love Cameron. He also stays to help clean up long after other students have rushed off to the varsity football games. Another off court activity Cameron finds time for is the National Honor Society.
Zach Wilcox
---
High School: Omaha South
Sport: Football/Wrestling
The fact that Zack Wilcox is a state qualifier for wrestling pales in comparison to his dedication in the classroom. With a GPA well above 4.0 and enrolled in several AP classes, Zack still finds time to be a leader not only in the classroom, but on the field/mat. As one would expect from such a hard worker academically, Zack is also in National Honor Society.
