Lynzee Zrebiec starred on the flag football team with 17 touchdown catches as a senior, on the soccer team with 22 points this season and in the classroom with a 4.8 weighted grade point average.

Oh, and she won Girl Scouts Nevada’s coveted Gold Award for an initiative she headed to foster “healing and encouragement” in the local homeless teenage population.

During sports seasons, she grew accustomed to “long, long hours” that saw her typically wake up at 4 a.m. to prepare for the school day and not finish practices and homework until 9 p.m. Zrebiec will start her time in college abroad in Italy as part of a Marist College program.
