Harrison Hartzler
He is the president of our team but he went way beyond his duties this year. When our boat was not able to pull jumpers, he made sure we had access to a different boat to pull jump practice before tournaments. He was out at the lake most days of the week for hours pulling anyone who wanted to ski. He was able to secure our team just about $9,000 of donations and sponsorships for our team so we could travel to nationals at no cost. This was not easy and required a lot of coordination, planning and time, but he was able to do it. He was cheering every member of our team on at tournaments and this includes on the dock pep talks too. Even at Regionals when his score was reported as better than what he did, Harrison went to the officials to get it corrected and showed true sportsmanship. He handled our new sports club director with grace and patience as she figure out her new role and what waterski club requires. Overall he did a great job this year and worked hard to get it done on and off the water.Emily O’Connor
Emily helped pull practice this year, she served as our president for a year where she was able to secure our team its very own trailer! And she decked out the inside to make traveling easier. Her and her parents were always providing food, snacks and scoring help at tournaments. Plus she PBed this year at regionals with 1,310 points in trick!Summer Hartzler
She joined our team after transferring to KU and she has been a great addition to the team! Summer is the sweetest, most caring person i have EVER met. She helped out with all things spirit for all of the tournaments by painting everyone which allowed her to integrate herself with our team culture. Plus she killed it on the water for her first college season! She improved in every event at almost every tournament!
