Erin Peterson was one the tragic victims of the Va. Tech
shootings, and also of my first clients I ever had in
this business. I began working with Erin in 2003
when she was a freshman at Westfield High School.
Our workouts were held at an outdoor court and in the
beginning,
Erin was not a very talented post player. But with
her dedicated work ethic, positive attitude, and the
strong influence of her family she developed into one of
the top post players in the area.
The
impact that she left on the Northern Va. basketball
community is immeasurable due to her positive
attitude and friendly demeanor. She
was always a team leader and a positive influence on all
of her teammates with her constant encouragement and
upbeat way of life.
Erin's spirit lives on today in all of our hearts and
through the Erin Peterson Fund. Each year two
scholarships are given;
the Erin Peterson Leadership
Award and the Erin Peterson Commit to Excel Award.
The Erin Peterson Fund is
100% donor dependent, the goal is to endow the fund in
order to guarantee that
Erin’s legacy lives on. If you are
interested in donating or would like to find out more
