Featured Athlete of the Week – Ker-Yung Hong – Waterdown

Ker-Yung Hong is the epitome of a well-rounded student athlete.  This grade 12 Waterdown student successfully balances athletics, academics, and is a member of the DECA business team.  As a starting wide receiver and kick returner for the varsity football team, Ker racked up 6 touch downs and over 800 total yards this season.  He is the starting middle hitter with the senior boys volleyball team who have advanced to the city semi-finals.  Ker is also a member of the senior boys basketball team who have looked impressive in pre-season action.  Despite committing so much time to athletics, Ker still boasts a very impressive 94% average in University level courses with aspirations to go to university next year.  Ker shows our younger athletes what it means to be a student athlete and role model at Waterdown.
