October Athletes of the Month

Fri, Oct 31st 2014 12:00 pm

Morgan Steele, Varsity Volleyball
From varsity volleyball, Coach Ladowski nominated Morgan Steele. Steele is a tremendous leader as the setter on the court and is an even better student in the classroom, where she challenges several AP courses and excels at all of them. She can always be counted on to pick the team up, and her level of competition and hustle is unrivaled on our team.

Madeline Stoklosa, Varsity Soccer
From varsity soccer, defender Madeline Stoklosa was nominated by Coach John Glose. Stoklosa was the leader in the backline for the Magic and helped Mercy reach the playoffs as the fourth-place team. Maddie is a vocal leader who is always encouraging her teammates to be better. She never quit on us, no matter what the score. Even though there are not a lot of statistics for a defender, Maddie was chosen because she does all the little things to help the team be successful. She will be greatly missed next season.

"Mount Mercy has positively changed my life forever. Through the inviting community, I was able to grow as a woman, as a daughter, as a friend, and as a member of society. Throughout my time here I have gained an education in both academic areas and life in general through the school's ongoing efforts to educate students on gender inequality, racial injustice, and environmental crisis'. Furthermore, Mercy has given me the space to gain confidence that 4 years ago I never would have guessed I would have. Mount Mercy has helped me take that initial step toward becoming the strong woman of color I am today. At Mercy you are more than just a student, you are whoever you wish to be."

"My future, success, and the ability to be an empowered woman in society come from Mount Mercy. My school is a strong foundation for my role in life. From attending Mount Mercy, I can say with confidence, that I will graduate with the mindset that I can accomplish anything. Mercy is my home and my sanctuary to be whoever I want. Mount Mercy has been bringing forth generations of strong intellectual women into the world, and I am more than honored to be one of them. Mercy teaches girls more than academics, but also about the world around us. As a mercy community, we give back to the world because it is our home. From my four years at Mercy, I have been educated on pushing for equality and peace and the understanding that there is no limit to what I can do. I have the confidence to go out in the world and make a difference because being a Mercy girl has given me that opportunity. "

"Mercy is more than just a school. Mercy is my second home and a shoulder to lean on. Mount Mercy has given me the confidence and resources to pursue my passions and make the world a more inclusive place, propelling me to take strides into male-dominated fields. Mercy blessed me with an environment to grow intellectually and in the community, giving me the foundation to make a tangible impact while making lifelong friendships."
