Austin & Mark Honored

Posted Date: 04/22/2024

These two guys! Levelland ISD and LHS are so excited for Seniors Mark Buxkemper and Austin Ellis. They were honored last week at the National Football Foundation Scholar Athlete Awards Dinner with scholarships. The NFF ensures and promotes the future of amateur football, and we are so proud that our two guys were a part of it. These two have grown up loving the game and were proud to be a part of the Lobo Football Team for many years. Not only are these boys leaders on the field, they also excel in the classroom! Austin is our 2024 Valedictorian and Mark is 6th in the graduating class. Both boys are active in National Honor Society and both are NHS Officers. They have both taken dual credit courses at South Plains College and Austin is actually a graduate of SPC. They are also active in Young Emerging Leaders of Levelland and could be the future leaders of our community. Mark and Austin are also active in other organizations including Future Christian Athletes! Mark is very active in Future Farmers of America and enjoys showing his barrows in Hockley County and major showrings. Austin also competed in powerlifting and track and field events, as well as academic UIL events. There's so much to say about these two boys. Congratulations Mark & Austin on one more amazing accolade! Thank you Coach Leong for #expectingexcellence, loving your athletes, and promoting their successes!
