How To Be A Fountain 101 by Alyssa Pinkston

As a kid you were probably told to spread kindness and to always be thankful. but, senior Connor Young never had to be told. Connor got involved in BRNews because of his love for sports and because his brother had been involved in the class for a few years prior with a shared passion for sports. However, while being in BRNews, Connor has never failed to spread kindness. Connor always comes in first thing in the morning showing a smile on his face and is well prepared to take on whatever task he is given with no complaint. Young even says  “My strongest contribution to BCSN would be always bringing a smile and a kind heart to the class. I only had the privilege of being involved in BCSN for a short time, so I felt that always being kind was a way that I could strongly impact and uphold the culture that surrounds BCSN.”  And which without a doubt Conor Young has left a strong impact on all of his peers around him. As well as always spreading positivity, kindness, and a smile, Connor has never failed to show gratitude towards absolutely anything. Connor has constantly expressed how thankful he is to be apart of BRNews and how grateful he is for the opportunities he has been given while being apart of the group. Connor says “ I am very thankful for the opportunity to take this class and join the BCSN family! This class has not only taught me so much about sports, it has taught me so much about how to live my life after high school.”  Being thankful for every opportunity he has been given.  Coach Fei has always said to “be a fountain, not a drain.” but, Connor has taken the time to become a role model of the fountain coach Fei is always talking about, showing others why its so much more valuable than being a drain.
