Proud. Today, one of our seniors @_alvaro.christ_ committed to rowing for @jakop150 @stangel85 @b_thehammer @hobartrowing. Grateful for the example of your determination and work ethic @_alvaro.christ_ . @_alvaro.christ_ is the first person in his family to earn admission to an American university. The journey hasn’t been easy. There was a time when he did not believe this moment was possible... But #benedictshatesaquitter . Much of @_alvaro.christ_ growth can be attributed to his personal determination, guidance from members of the faculty & staff, his brothers @sbprowing , and the values of St. Benedict's Prep @graybees as a whole. We are all extremely proud of you! Finish strong 💪🏾💪🏽💪🏼 🇧🇷 🇺🇸! #falldownandgetbackup #fightingspirit #determination #grit #tookavillage #nightandday #friends #friendship #scholarships #scholar #excel #excellence #focus #fitness #consistency #stayfly #flex #workhard #noexcuses #newarknj #newarkisnow #nork #hobart #remo #hobartwilliamsmithcolleges #rowing #rowingispassion #rowingislife
