Hailey Skolmoski, a senior at Riverton High School, is not
only a high achiever with her grades, but in all aspects of her life. She
has played soccer since she was 5 years old and has been recruited by colleges
from the time she was 14 years old. She has played
all over the country as well as on the national team in Costa Rica. She
gives 100% on the field whether in practice or a game. She was offered
scholarships from several Division 1 schools, and was committed to play at the
University of Utah at the age of 16. (on her 16th birthday)
Not only is she
amazing on the soccer field, but she is a committed student. She received
Academic All State for soccer with a 4.0 GPA. With her perfect grades and
high ACT score, Hailey plans to go into Education at the University of
Utah. One of Hailey's greatest attributes is that she does not give
up, no matter how discouraged she gets. When something gets hard, she just
works harder. In addition, Hailey is a girl who cares deeply and loves with her
whole heart. If you are her friend, you know what that means. She
loves serving others, loves to spend time with her family, and strives daily to
be a good person. Her achievements thus far in her 17 years are
admirable. She has many more great years ahead as a UTE and a future
teacher.
