The Lady Rockets Sectional Champs Scholarship
APPLICATION OVERVIEW
The Lady Rockets Sectional Champs Scholarship has been established by the members of the 1988-89 Lady Rockets High School basketball team. This scholarship is in recognition of the accomplishments and success of the Lady Rockets team by winning the Sectional Tournament and becoming District Runner Up for the first time in Fayetteville High School history. Their accomplishments created the foundation for the strong program and pride that exists today in being a Lady Rocket. It is also most importantly in memory of three team players who have passed on from the 1988-89 Sectional Championship team. The purpose of this scholarship is to celebrate the memory of these wonderful individuals while also rewarding a senior female athlete from Fayetteville High School who would like to further her education. The amount of the scholarship that will be awarded will be $500.00.
Rhonda (Ackman) Connor, Kelly (Hicks) Seaman, and Jennifer (Jennings) Fiscus were members of the 1988-89 Sectional Champs Lady Rockets basketball team that contributed to making history as the first basketball team to win a Sectional Title at Fayetteville Perry High School. Their lives were too short, but all three have left us with their own amazing accomplishments to society and many wonderful memories for their family and friends. These three strong women and their contributions to the Lady Rocket program will not be forgotten by their fellow FHS teammates. To honor their memory and spirit, the 1988-89 Lady Rockets basketball team would like to give back to the future generations of scholar female athletes at FHS by recognizing an outstanding female athlete and help with furthering her education.
