Eastern New York Awards a Patricia Louise Masotto and Brenda Driscoll Scholarship to Chloe Antalek
New York Youth Soccer News: Eastern New York and five of our nine leagues all have scholarship programs
Happy Birthday on August 20 to Chloe Antalek, who is receiving a Patricia Louise Masotto and Brenda Driscoll Scholarship from the Eastern New York Youth Soccer Association (ENYYSA). The award is based on success in high school as well as community service.
The scholarship’s namesakes were best friends and top women’s soccer players from Massapequa, Long Island, and Eastern New York set up a scholarship in their name after they were killed by a drunk driver in 1985.
Chloe also received an East Hudson Youth Soccer League (EHYSL) Scholarship at the EHYSL Dinner of Champions last month.
Chloe has been a solid competitor and contributor to the EHYSL’s soccer program, playing for both the East Hudson Academy team and the Eastern New York Olympic Development Program (ODP) for five years as well as for club team East Fishkill Fire. She was Beacon High School’s leading scorer, senior captain and All-League Select.
The Wappinger Falls resident has served the soccer community very well by volunteering to train inner-city kids at the Newburgh Armory, participating in the Relay for Life “Kick ‘in Cancer” campaign and working with Beacon’s younger girls soccer programs.
She is a member of both the National Honor Society member and Beacon High School Honor Roll plus had a GPA of 93%.
We wish Chloe all the best at Nyack College!
