“What sets Spencer apart is his burning desire to improve. During the height of the pandemic, our student-athletes were not permitted to use our athletic facilities, so he had to practice at home. He just strung up a net between trees in his backyard and threw the discus into the netting. His perseverance paid off this spring with two junior class state records.”
