Scholar Athlete of the Week- Connor Seeberger
PANAMA CITY, Fla. (WMBB) – This week's Scholar-Athlete of the Week sponsored by Perry and Young P.A. is Bay High School's Connor Seeberger. Seeberger faced a decision before entering high school: continue homeschooling or enroll at Bay High School. Influenced by pre-existing friendships on the Tornadoes tennis team, a leap of faith was taken, not just onto the courts. Seeberger also enrolled in the school's AICE program, an accelerated curriculum offered by Bay High. During his freshman year, all of his friends on the Bay High School tennis team were seniors. After their graduation, Seeberger took o the role of team captain as a sophomore, an opportunity that brought both challenge and reward. 'It's been a lot of fun,' Seeberger said. 'Getting to meet the new kids, helping encourage them, and seeing them grow.' A leadership role was embraced throughout his years at Bay, leading the tennis team to multiple wins and earning individual honors. Tennis was used as both a competitive outlet and a way to de-stress from academic pressures. 'It's a fun balance,' Seeberger said. 'Hard work was put in inside the classroom, and then I got to go exercise, relax, and just enjoy time with the team.' Now preparing for graduation, Seeberger has chosen to retire his racket. Instead, his focus is being turned to the University of Florida, where he will study engineering on nearly a full scholarship. Seeberger will begin the next chapter of his journey with the highest of honors. Ending high school with a weighted GPA of 4.71 and a perfect unweighted record has earned him the title of Valedictorian for Bay High School's Class of 2025. A future in sustainable systems and energy conservation is being envisioned by Seeberger, who hopes to improve efficiency and workplace safety through innovative engineering.
