LIFE AT HOME
How are you adjusting to school life at home?

What have you been doing in your spare time to keep your mind occupied?
Tobias: “I have been able to work out every day to stay in shape for when I leave for college. My family is participating in our own Olympics that we’ve created, and we do activities every day together.”
LOOKING BACK AND FORWARD
What are your future plans after high school?
Tobias: “I plan on attending Houghton College, and I will continue playing soccer and tennis there.”
What coaches have influenced you the most throughout your high school career? Why?
Tobias: “Coach (Jamie) Mullen. He’s always pushed me during my time in soccer to be my best, and even past my limits because he knew that I could do better. He was also another great father figure in my life.”
How much has it meant to you to represent your school’s colors in the sports arena?
Tobias: “It has meant so much. To attend the State Final Four this past year in soccer, and win consecutive Sectional titles in tennis shows how good out school not only excels at one sport just for boys, but for many sports and for both boys and girls.”
What has been some of your favorite sports memories over the years in school?
Tobias: “One of my favorite memories I will remember is definitely going to the State tournament in my Senior year. Not very many people get the chance to play for a State championship. Winning individual Sectionals in tennis with my twin brother last year is definitely up there as well.”
What’s your farewell message to your underclassmen at your school?
Tobias: “Enjoy your time in school with your friends and teachers. Don’t take these opportunities you have to play your Spring season next year for granted. Play next year’s Spring season for us, the seniors who weren’t able to play our last season. You never know what is going to happen, and rip those away from you.”

How much has it meant to you to represent your school’s colors in the sports arena?
Levi: “It has meant so much to me because I love Fillmore and all that it has meant to me. It also meant a lot to me that I got to represent the same school as my three older siblings before me, and I got to do it all with my twin brother right next to me the whole time.”
