Why do you believe the star student athlete should be recognized?
Max received the NH IAABO male athlete of the year in 2022. This award is given out to the man or woman who excels and shows great sportsmanship and leadership. Max is also an honor student. What makes Max stand is he is always helping up both his team and his opponent's players. Max excels in competition in all three sports. Max tore his ACL this fall and even though he was not able to be the starting goalie for Concord High School this year he has become the number cheerleader for the soccer team and has become a mentor to the goalie for the soccer team
