She gets off to a good start, making the "President's List" both semesters of her freshman year. She is named Clemson's "Outstanding Student in General Chemistry" which is a $50 award in cash but much, much more in honor. She is invited to join Alpha Lambda Delta ($25 membership fee) and the The National Society of Collegiate Scholars ($45 membership fee). She also enjoys her part-time job, working in the Physics Lab, when the time allows. She is a "Student Assistant III", a.k.a., a "student research assistant".
Summer, 2000 - Jobs before sophomore year: 07/07/00 - 07/07/00 Carter's 19th Hole at NK Municipal Golf Course. 07/xx/00 - 08/17/00 SK Recreation Dept, Basketball Ref.
09/01/00 - At the start of Sarah's sophomore year, she is awarded the VOGEL (renewable) Scholarhip. She is also one of a handful of students to be chosen to be an Ambassador for the Physics Department, considered to be a prestigious position. Her main responsibility will be to give tours of the department.
01/22/01 - Sarah is one of four students selected by Clemson to be nominated for the "Barry Goldwater Award".
Clemson will eventually come up with two (01/01-Sarah is one (pdf)) of Clemson's finalists for the national award competition.

Sarah is a serious student with a great sense of humor. She graduated from South Kingstown High School on June 18, 1999. She did well. She likes science, especially physics and biology. Her short term goals reflect her love of science and the theatre. She held numerous jobs while in school.
She loves sports. She played soccer in the fall (goalie for the state champs in 1997 and 1998), basketball in the winter, and volleyball in the spring. She did play softball in the spring of her freshman year.

Sarah took the summer of 1999 off - she only had a few weeks before college starts. Sarah spent the summers from 96-98 working backstage at the nationally known summer theatre in South Kingstown, Theatre-By-The-Sea. She loved it. She made her acting debut on August 16, 1996 in the role of "nervous tech apprentice pushed on-stage to be part of the crowd scene" in Evita.
She thanks everyone, especially the cooks at Theatre-By-The-Sea, for their support.
She will attend Calhoun College, which is the Honors Program at Clemson University, in the fall - CU-Soon, GoPaws!

Sarah's goal is to teach Physics and to be involved in school and community theatre. She plans to major in Physics and minor in tech theatre and education at Clemson University. She can be reached at sstanho@clemson.edu. She will "enjoy" only 15 days of winter whereas, if she went to Orono, Maine, for example, she would enjoy 155 days of winter. Sarah is very impressed by the Physics Professors and the Theatre Professors that teach at Clemson. She may try-out for the Club Volleyball team, not the varsity team. Jodi Brown Johnsen Award for basketball MVP, both in 98 & 99 ... SCYSC (South County Soccer) Scholarship ... Dorothy Geaber Memorial Scholarship (Basketball) ... South Kingstown Lions Club Scholarship ... Ellen & Albert Smith Scholarship (renewable) ... Augusta Hazard Scholarship ... NEA Teacher's Scholarship ... SKHS Drama Scholarship. Narragansett Times Award to SKHS Outstanding Female Athlete ... South Kingstown Booster's Club Award for Outstanding Female Scholar-Athlete. Sarah, along with Sushma Sunak, won the Physics' "Egg-Drop" Contest. Sarah made "Who's Who" but didn't buy the book. |

Sarah has played basketball since her freshman year. The Rebels were in Division II her first year when they made the state playoffs, winning one game before being eliminated. In her sophomore year, the Rebels were moved up to Division I and since then, the Rebels have never been able to reach .500 |

Sarah has won some honors while playing basketball. From the Rhode Island Girls' Basketball Coaches Association - "3rd Team Southern Division - '96-'97", "2nd Team Southern Division - '97-'98", and "1st Team Southern Division - '98-'99. She was also selected "Team MVP" for '97-'98 and should have a good chance of repeating in '98-'99. Sarah, with 1,000+ points, did repeat. |

Sarah, on the left, gave a presentation at a URI practice. Or was it the woman from ESPN who gave the presentation? |

Yes, it was Mimi Griffin, the blond lady in the middle, an ESPN Basketball Analyst that gave the presentation. Sorry - wishful thinking! |

Sarah, after playing softball her freshman year and sitting out the spring of her sophomore year decided to try volleyball in her junior year. She enjoyed it very much. In her senior year, she was selected as one of two captains for the 1999 team, which made the playoffs for the first time in two years. (Sarah on floor.) |

Sarah played softball her
freshman year. At that time
the school was in the
slow-pitch league. (The
school switched to
fast-pitch in Sarah's
junior year but by then the
harm had already been done
as slow-pitch had turned
her off to future softball.)
In fast-pitch, Sarah can play all positions, but prefers to catch. |
