Luke Henderson is the son of Holly and Matt Henderson. Throughout high school he was involved in Basketball, Football, Track, FFA, FBLA and Baseball manager. He plans to attend Iron Eagle Welding Academy and he hopes to, “Go on the road and make some bread welding.” If he could go back to freshman year, “I would play football, and try harder in my class, get my GPA up.” Coaches he’d like to thank would be, “Coach Eierman- he’s a cool and funny dude, made class enjoyable. Coach Boyer and coach brownsburger- Made me realize there is more than yourself in a sport, there is a culture.”His biggest achievement was winning districts in basketball. If he goes to his ten year reunion he hopes to have accomplished, “Probably be married and bench more than Josh Harvath.” What he’ll miss most is, “Seeing the boys everyday.” His advice to a younger student, “Do all your work, and show up to school, you will regret it later if you don’t.”
