Ord’s Carson Selected for NFHS Spirit of Sport Award

Ashley Carson, a 17-year-old junior at Ord High School, has dealt with challenging circumstances that most adults don’t experience in an entire lifetime. Undaunted, she has demonstrated incredible drive and resolve to overcome those challenges and to become an exceptional athlete and student.

In recognition of her accomplishments and bravery, Carson has been selected the recipient of the 2016 National High School Spirit of Sport Award by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS). She will receive her award June 29 at the NFHS Summer Meeting in Reno, Nevada.
