Student Stories: Ellie McDermid
Please join us in congratulating Ellie McDermid, Bay Port High School's all-time leading scorer for basketball! The record was previously held by Brenda Utech (1999). Brenda is a fifth grade teacher at Lineville. Ellie is also the all-time leader in rebounds and blocks. Her coach Adam Lemorande had this to say about her achievements, "To hold one school record is a huge accomplishment, but to hold three records is legendary."
Ellie has committed to play ball at Bradley University in Peoria, IL. #PiratePride
