Meeting the Managers

The Emmaus High School Green Hornets’ achievements can be attributed to the coaches, players, and school community at large. But there’s also a group of people who help out behind the scenes to make sure the team can perform. 

The EHS football managers consist of five students who strive to ensure the team is ready for every game. From filming practices to refilling water bottles, they commit their time and energy so each player can be prepared for game day. 

Here’s an inside look at each manager on what they have to say about their experience.

Maya Escoto:

Escoto is a junior in her second year of management. She does athletic training field study with Mark Yorty.

“Ever since I started managing, my career view has changed… now I’m very interested in majoring in communication.”

Gemma Kennedy:

Kennedy is a sophomore in her first year of management. She encourages other people to become managers because she believes it is a great opportunity to be a part of.

 “… [managing is] like a small family. I really appreciate that, with how big our school is now.”

Kaylee Iwans:

Iwans is a senior in her first year of management. She plans on continuing to manage in college.

“…the most rewarding part is working with everybody and just learning new things.”

Eleanor Bresnan:

Bresnan is a senior in her second year of management. A friend encouraged her to become a manager, giving her an opportunity she is now passionate about.

“I just enjoyed being a part of the team, and [managing] made me feel more part of the school community.”

Marjoley Bauer:

Bauer is a junior in her second year of management. She also does field study in athletic training with Liz Del Re.

“I think that if other people want to do it [managing], they should, because every part is just rewarding. Being able to see them [the players] go through different emotions and being able to support each other.”

Through managing, these students are making meaningful connections and finding satisfaction in putting forth valuable contributions. These contributions are valuable for our school team and community, both in practices and games. In addition to being a driving force for football, what these individuals are learning and experiencing through managing will shape their futures, careers, and life.
