Outstanding Seniors are honored at Founders’ Day ceremony

Outstanding Seniors Amy Spitzmueller and Miles Dunna.

Saint Mary’s presented awards to two outstanding seniors at the Founders’ Day celebration today at the Winona campus. Outstanding Seniors are recognized for demonstrating the ideals of scholarship, character, leadership and service. Above all, these men and women show genuine concern for meeting the needs of others. Founders’ Day is a highpoint of the annual De La Salle Week activities. Each day’s events illustrate one of the themes of Lasallian education and they invite the community to learn, reflect, discuss and connect with others.

The Outstanding Female and Male Senior awards were presented to Amy Spitzmueller and Miles Dunna. Miles, the son of Wokie Dunna of Saint Paul, Minn., is a psychology major, and Amy, daughter of Kathy and Bill Spitzmueller of New Brighton, Minn., is a biology major. The other eight Outstanding Senior finalists included: Dylan Ethen, son of Todd and Lucinda Ethen of White Bear Lake, Minn.; Evan Shockley, son of Steve and Lisa Shockley of Omaha, Neb.; John Soucheray, son of John and Kate Soucheray of Woodbury, Minn.; Matthew Traxler, son of Tim and Jeanne Traxler of LeCenter, Minn.; Lisa Obasi, daughter of Queen and Cyprian Obasi of Woodbury, Minn.; Abigail Osborne, daughter of Roger and Pam Osborne of Winthrop, Minn.; Marilyn Yennie, daughter of Tom and Kim Yennie of Grand Meadow, Minn.; and Katherine Zuzek, daughter of Mark and Janet Zuzek of Hastings, Minn.
