Here are photos of our athletes of the Year from EISD!

Dalia Martinez, Female Athlete of the Year Area 20 Special Olympics and Matthew Olguin, Male Athlete of the year, both of ETC!

These two have been athletes since they were 8 years old.  They are now young adults!  They both work everyday with job coaches.

Both Dalia and Matt attend all functions offered to them by Coach Mell.  They participate in Bowling, Basketball, Roller Skating, Equestrian and Track and Field competition.  Matthew graduated from JFK earning his letterman jacket there.  Dalia graduated from Memorial earning her letterman jacket there!

They both assist me with the Young Athlete Program which we just completed last week at Stafford EC, Burleson EC and Cardenas EC. 

Just though you might like to see a photo of these athletes!
