By Casey Krautkramer

Senior Jack Tubbs has been selected as Stratford High School’s 11th WIAA Scholar Athlete in school history.

Tubbs is a three-time football state champion who was named Marawood Conference Most Valuable Player during his senior year of football. The 4.0 student earned first team all-conference honors in wrestling, football and baseball. He helped the Tigers wrestling team make two state appearances.

As a senior, Tubbs was recognized as his team’s Most Valuable Player in football.

He shared the following in his essay: “One motto that has really shaped my character is reminding myself I’m never going to look back and wish I didn’t try as hard. Instead, I want to look back and be able to say I gave it all I had. I wouldn’t have had the success I have had so far without working hard and putting in onehundred percent effort.” Tubbs will attend St. Mary’s University in Minnesota to study finance and play baseball. He joins the following Stratford WIAA Scholar Athletes from 1984 until now: Todd Schoenherr in 1993, Shawn Kitchner in 2003, Gregory Bubolz in 2004, Dustin Bauman in 2006, Jordan Bauman in 2009, Indy Spindler in 2010, Kamren Bornbach in 2017, Dylan Schoenherr in 2019, Max Schwabe in 2020 and Jackson Ormond in 2023.
