$500 Scholarship Available For Senior Student Athletes

April 2, 2016

Pensacola Sports and Whataburger will present scholarships at the Pensacola Sports Senior Scholar Athlete Banquet on May 10.

In total more than $120,000 in scholarships will be awarded to nearly 30 senior athletes during the event.

For the fourth consecutive year, Whataburger and Pensacola Sports will award one male and  one female student-athlete with a $500 scholarship to be used toward their first semester’s book expense.  Additionally, the two awardees will win “Whataburger for a Year.”  Any senior in Escambia or Santa Rosa county is eligible to apply.

The annual banquet recognizes over 200 senior athletes from Escambia and Santa Rosa county schools based on their academic performance combined with the student’s athletic skills. It is common for several of the nominees to be a school’s valedictorian or in the top five percent of their respective class.

Senior student athletes can visit www.pensacolasports.org/whataburgerscholarship/ to complete and submit the scholarship application form.  The selection committee is looking for individuals who have performed well in the classroom, participated in a varsity sport(s), and have contributed to their community through volunteer hours and extracurricular activities and clubs. April 26 is the deadline to submit a scholarship application.
