Congrats to Mackenzie Bosscawen 2nd place 105 lbs weight class and congrats to Makenzi Casio on first place in the 123 lbs weight class. Another Coach Shryock made her coaching debut as well. Great job all the Trojans powerlifters today.

S-M powerlifting teams at Laverne today! Everyone worked hard and represented the Trojans well!

The Dalton Shryock Memorial Scholarship was established to honor the life of a man who moved through the world with equal parts intellect, strength, and heart. A proud graduate of Sharon Mutual, Dalton returned to these same halls to serve as a science teacher and coach, completing a circle of dedication to his community. ​He was a man of many chapters: a voracious reader who was never without a book; a dedicated educator who fueled curiosity; and a steadfast coach who built character on and off the field. Above all, he was defined by his devotion to those he loved. As a father to three daughters, a protective brother to twin sisters, a loving son, and a "one-of-a-kind" friend, he was the anchor for everyone around him.
​Our Goal:
This scholarship seeks to support a graduating senior who embodies these same qualities—someone who demonstrates academic curiosity, a commitment to their "team" (sports team, school club, church or family), and a genuine, protective kindness toward others. We are looking for a student who doesn’t just strive for personal success, but who lifts others up along the way.
Applications for the scholarship are in Mrs. Hopper's Google Classroom along with other local scholarships which all seniors have access to. The application must be completed and submitted through Google Classroom and is due by April 15, 2026.
