Cami Larsen –– Sports Editor (11)

Cami Larsen is an avid student, who loves to excel in sports as well as her school work. She participates on both the varsity softball and volleyball teams for the school, as well as on travel teams for each during the off seasons. She not only loves to challenge herself physically, but mentally as well by reading. Cami enjoys using her free time, although there is little of it, to meet new people and try new things. Although she is only a junior, she is eager to move to the east coast and attend a college there. The only thing she is hesitant about is the fact that she is extremely shy when meeting people, but when you get to know her she is full-mouthed. She is captivated by sports, and is ecstatic to use this interest to contribute to the Pitman Roaring Times.
