I have fought to convince myself that I was deserving of the title of “debater” for a long time. I felt that none of my accomplishments meant anything, and I was always chasing something better and better to convince myself I was a good debater. However, winning this scholarship shows me that just because I feel that I could have done even more in debate, I have worked hard and should be proud of the effort I put in no matter the outcome. Winning this scholarship shows me that all my hard work has meant something, and I should continue to follow my passion for this academic sport. I thank you deeply and sincerely for helping fund my efforts into higher education—especially because it means I will be able to join my university’s debate team!

Dear Dan Leahy Scholarship Fund, I am deeply honored and grateful to be selected as a recipient of the Dan Leahy Scholarship. This scholarship holds special significance for me, as it embodies the values of critical thinking, articulate expression, and community advocacy that were championed by Mr. Leahy. Aristotle's words resonate profoundly with me, reminding me of the importance of not only physical defense but also the defense of ideas through reasoned discourse. I am committed to honing my skills in speech and debate, knowing that these abilities will empower me to contribute meaningfully to my community. Receiving this scholarship motivates me to continue striving for excellence in my education and beyond. I am sincerely thankful to the Leahy family and all those involved in supporting this scholarship fund. Your generosity enables students like me to pursue our academic and personal aspirations with confidence. Thank you once again for this incredible opportunity. I look forward to making the most of it and carrying forward the legacy of Dan Leahy through my endeavors. Warm regards, Justice Escobedo
Delaney Lenihan
Dear Dan Leahy Scholarship Fund, My name is Delaney Lenihan and you recently named me as a as a finalist for your scholarship honoring Dan Leahy. Similar to Dan, I believe that everyone should have access to education that teaches them to be themselves and voice their opinions. Quality of education lays the foundation for a great future, it can change the path of any and every life. I am currently enrolled at Texas A&M to study animal science and minor in political science. I hope that one day I can be a voice for agriculture and teach both young children and adults about the trials and tribulations of agriculture. With this I also have the dream that I can shape legislature to aid farmers in the industry. This dream would not have been possible without my amazing mentors and teachers who pushed me to be better. Although I did not win the scholarship, I am grateful for the chance to share my story of my FFA advisor and be considered a finalist for the award. Thank you, Delaney Lenihan
