Locally, Luke Griner, a Wawasee High School graduate, accepted an appointment to U.S. Military Academy.
Banks said, “These eight young men and women represent the best of Indiana and the best of our country. The resolve and patriotism they’ve demonstrated, at such a young age, is truly remarkable. I have no doubt that they will one day represent our community well as officers in the U.S. Military. Amanda and I join Hoosiers everywhere in thanking Mark, Ryan, Abigail, McKenna, Matthew, Rayna, Clayton and Luke and wishing them the best as they begin their journeys of service and leadership."
Griner will be attending the United States Military Academy later this year following his graduation from the United States Military Academy Preparatory School. The Preparatory School is a one-year feeder program that prepares soldiers for West Point. Griner previously graduated from Wawasee High School where he excelled in athletics and academics. Griner often times found himself leading others by example through his hard work, dedication, staying motivated, and paying attention to details, according to the news release from Banks’ office. He looks forward to taking the next step at West Point and the future ahead.
