Heart & Hustle athletes are…
LEADERS They can be counted on, take responsibility, bounce back from challenges, stay humble, and work well as both a teammate and a student. They shine in whatever role they’re in. INSPIRATIONAL They keep going strong when faced with difficulties and setbacks, and through their actions, motivate others to do the same.

Receiving this scholarship is an incredible honor that has already had a meaningful impact on my journey as a student-athlete. It not only eases the financial burden of balancing my academic and athletic goals but also serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of hard work and perseverance. With this support, I am more motivated than ever to excel both in the classroom and on the rugby field, ensuring that I make the most of every opportunity that comes my way. The recognition and financial aid provided by this scholarship will empower me to continue striving toward my ambitions with confidence and resilience, knowing that my efforts are supported and appreciated.”
“
I am beyond grateful for being awarded the Heart and Hustle Scholarship. Being recognized for loving the sport I play and how I play it is one of the best feelings. I think most athletes will agree. This scholarship will impact my future by not only helping me with my senior year expenses but by showing me that hard work really does pay off. I can’t think of a better motivator for my senior year than the gift of this scholarship. A big thank you to Jeff McShane and all his support for Central Athletics. As always, Go Cats!”
