Top 15: Knipp

On Thursday evening, Newport Harbor Field Hockey senior Delaney Knipp was honored as one of the top student athletes from Newport Harbor, Corona del Mar, and Sage, for athletic and academic achievements, as well as community involvement, at the 58th Annual Athletic Awards Dinner. Special guest speaker, Chris Duplanty, three time olympian and silver medalist for water polo, offered four pieces of advice for the student athletes. The advice included the following points: remember who you are, believe in yourself, keep learning, and be responsible with what you have.

Thank you to the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce for hosting such a special event to recognize the student-athletes.

Congratulations to Delaney for this exciting honor!
