by cnewman

For the past four years, Metro Source and the Hamburg Sun have been
putting on a banquet to honor the best girls in soccer and the best boys
in football.
Also, for the past four years, they have been
giving out the Andrew Maisano Leadership Award, named after Andrew
Maisano - who played soccer, hockey and lacrosse at St. Francis High
School before moving on to play lacrosse at Army.
The award is
for a young man or woman who shows strong leadership on and off the
field, has a strong commitment to academics and a strong commitment to
the community.
Early in the nomination process,Isobel Johnston's name was mentioned by almost everybody in the Mount Mercy Academy
community and by her soccer coach John Glose. The nomination list was long as they all stated how this award fits her in many ways.
While
others on the team might have gotten more attention, Johnston was the
true leader on and off the field for a Mount Mercy soccer team that
achieved great goals this year.
Her work in the classroom and the community just proved what kind of leader she truly is.
In the end, Johnston is very deserving of the Andrew Maisano Leadership Award.
