From the Durham Herald-Sun, May 22 DURHAM -- The Durham Sport Club Scholarship Foundation honored the top student-athletes in Durham on Wednesday night during its annual Scholar-Athlete Awards night at Croasdaile Country Club.
Taking home the top prize of a $1,000 scholarship were Durham Academy's Sean Sketch and Jordan's Michelle Lutz. Winning a $550 scholarship for second prize were Sarah Marion of Durham School of the Arts and [former DA student] Daniel Kimmel of N.C. School of Science and Mathmatics.
Sketch, son of Beth and Michael Sketch, is a two-sport star in soccer and track. A two-year letterman in soccer, Sketch won the coach's award in 2006. In track, he is a three-time letter winner and was team captain his senior year. Sketch was an all-state performer in 2007 and an all-conference selection in 2006 and 2007. His 3,200 relay team won the state title in 2007 and is the school's record holder.
Sketch has won the physics, French and English awards at Durham Academy. He has been accepted to Princeton, Harvard, MIT, Duke, Dartmouth, Notre Dame, Tufts and Bucknell but remains undecided on his college destination.
