Girls Student Athlete of the Month: Brooklyn Stevenson
Brook has been a huge part of the Bear River Girls Golf program over the past 4 years. Brook qualified for the State Tournament as a Freshman and has continued to get better each year. Brook sets goals and has the dedication, determination and drive to achieve those goals. You can’t get better at golf by just playing and practicing during the High School season. Brook has played on the Northern Junior tour every summer, gets help from professional instructors year round and just does what it takes to improve. She is also the definition of leadership and has always led by example. I’ve been so impressed by how much she helps the younger players and has always been such a great team member. She believes in being there for her teammates and building them up with her positive attitude. It’s been so rewarding to have been able to coach Brook and I can truly say that it has made me better in so many ways.
Brook is also amazing off the golf course. She works hard academically, getting a 4.0 GPA, and excelling in everything she sets her mind to. I know Brook’s future is bright and she will accomplish whatever her heart desires. Brook is the Daughter of Brad and Sue Stevenson of Deweyville

I have known Brook for most of her life and have seen in her many qualities that will make her a huge success and many qualities I wish I had! When I had her in my Health class as a sophomore she was a great student who just quietly came to class every day and just did exceptional work. In fact I would say when it comes to her school work Brook is the definition of the perfectionist. She didn’t just work for an ‘A’ she wanted everything done perfectly. This has kind of been her mantra, as she just quietly goes about her business with excellence. She always puts a full effort into everything she does and fights to the bitter end for what she believes is right. I remember being told once that if you are going to do something then do it right. Brook exemplifies that saying! She is definitely the type of person you want to go to battle with because you know you are always going to get her full effort and support! She puts this same effort and dedication into her school work as is shown by her 4.0 GPA, while taking about every college class and higher level class we offer. She not only works hard but she is extremely smart as is shown by her amazing 33 ACT. I have noticed that Brook is very determined when she goes after something and doesn’t back down from a challenge or difficulty. These characteristics are rare and will take her far in her life. Another quality I have always appreciated about Brook is her integrity! She is a person of her word and she always stands up for what she believes is right. I would trust her with anything. Thanks Brooklyn for not only being an inspiration to me and others but thanks for bringing such hope to our future because with people like you we are bound to see brighter days ahead! Best wishes in the future!
