Congratulations to Evelyn Nelson of Sleepy Hollow field hockey and lacrosse for earning the ConEdison Scholar Athlete of the Week Award!
Evelyn Nelson has been a consistent presence on the Sleepy Hollow turf for the last 5 girls lacrosse and field hockey seasons. The senior has left an indelible mark on her school as not only a 5 year varsity starter in both sports, but also as a captain for 3 seasons in field hockey and 2 in lacrosse.
Nelson has excelled on both teams, earning a total of 4 All-Section honors, as well as being named All-State in field hockey this past fall. A prolific scorer on the lacrosse field, Nelson eclipsed 100 goals as a sophomore and is closing in on 200 early in her final season.
The senior is also a standout in the classroom, maintaining over a 100 average while carrying a course load with 4 AP classes. She also holds multiple volunteer and mentorship positions as well as being her class treasurer for her entire four year of high school.
Nelson has been described as a disciplined, dedicated leader who exemplifies the meaning of a true scholar athlete.
Congratulations again to Evelyn Nelson on taking home this week’s Con Edison Scholar Athlete of the Week Award!
