My name is Matthew Meneses.  I am currently a senior  at Eastwood High School.  During my career here at Eastwood I have had a successful athletic journey.  I ran varsity track since the end of my freshman year and varsity football since my junior year. I played quarterback and wide receiver for the troopers and worked hard enough to make captain my senior year. Although we didnt win one game in two years I feel like I accomplished some personal goals and contributed to the team, which is what its all about when it comes to sports. My track career was a bit more successful if I do say so myself. This year the boys Trooper Track team and I  won the 1-5A District Track meet. Keep in mind the boys track team hasn’t won district since 1989. I qaulified for regionals in the 400 meter dash, the 4×100 meter relay, and the 4×400 meter relay. We didnt make state but I ran my personal best in the 400 which was a split of 48.8 seconds. This upcoming week I plan on visiting the University Of Incarnate Word in San Antonio Texas. I was honored to receive ann academic scholarship from them and plan on talking to the track coaches during my visit. They invited me to watch the track meet they are hosting. In college I want to major in history and english and later become a teacher. So far some pretty important life decisions have been made but I understand that there is many more important ones coming up. Im prepared for college and hope to make the best of it.
