LEVITTOWN, NY — We all know student athletes who also bring their A-game to other parts of their lives.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these heroes making a difference in their communities. We’re working to let all your neighbors know the individual stories behind the leaderboard.

This submission comes from Elizabeth Garger who nominated her son Henry, of Levittown.

What sport does the star student athlete play?

Soccer, Wrestling, Baseball

Why do you believe the star student athlete should be recognized?

Henry has solid leadership qualities. He is a team player. During COVID, he changed his mental and physical outlook and started working out, eating better and focusing on the positive. He helps his neighbors- mowing, landscaping, clearing snow. And he is a role model to his younger cousins. He is in the National Honor Society and maintains a 95 average.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the star student athlete?

He’s a model son, friend and teammate.

Keep up the great work, Henry!
