Hunter Heads to West Point
SARATOGA SPRINGS — Senior goalkeeper Hunter Choy has been named Athlete of the Week. This season Hunter was a co-captain and standout for the varsity boy’s soccer team. Leading the defense on the field, Choy helped contribute to the team’s eleven shutouts this season. Allowing only twelve goals on the year, he finished the year with a ninety-three percent save percentage. Recalls Jake Zanetti, boy’s varsity soccer coach, “he kept us in multiple games with his unique style of goalkeeping. He is a great all-around kid who is going to continue to do great things at the next level.”
In the classroom Hunter is an outstanding student. With a ninety-six grade point average, he will be attending The United States Military Academy in West Point, New York beginning this fall.
While balancing a demanding athletic and academic schedule, Hunter is also involved in several school clubs. He is involved in Student Council, Honor Society, Fiddle Club, and even War Reenactments. Recalls Zanetti, “he was a captain for us, and did an amazing job of acting as a peer role model to his teammates. He took new members “under his wing” and really did his best to make everyone feel a part of the team’s success.”
