athletics, academics, and com
munity service,” Obolensky said.
“It recognizes me not just as a
scholar or an athlete or leader in
the community, but as a whole
person.”
Wolfe was ranked in the top 1
percent of her class at Bishop Ire
ton High School and was a mem
ber of the National Honor Socie
ty, French Honor Society, and
class treasurer. Her sports activi
ties included track, cross country,
indoor track, and basketball, and
twice she was named as Alexan
dria City Athlete of the Year in
cross-country. She volunteers in
the Arlington Hospital maternity
ward.
“This award is a recognition of
all the hard work I’ve put into all
my academics and athletics in
high school,” Wolfe said. “This
award is important to me because
it incorporates my achievements
with something I love to do,
drink milk!”
While recent research shows
that milk consumption among
teens is up for the second year in
a row, many teens still swap milk
for less nutritious beverages.
With efforts like the annual
SAMMY program, product inno
vation, teen-targeted advertising,
and partnerships with teen favor
ites like MTV and Rolling Stone,
the milk industry hopes to con
tinue milk’s momentum amongst
this status-conscious crowd.
“SAMMY winners are role
models for other teens because
they understand that academics,
athletics, and good health are
keys to success,” said Kurt
Graetzer, CEO of the Milk Mus
tache Campaign, which sponsors
the scholarship program.
