Senior
Justin Hueber of Leo High School is the 2005 recipient of the Fred A. Keesling
Mental Attitude Award presented following Wednesday’s final round of the 69th
annual IHSAA Boys Golf Championship at The Legends of Indiana Golf Course in
Franklin. Hueber finished second individually

Hueber is a

the state finals when he earned an individual berth in 2004. He tied the school record with a 69 this
season, setting the school mark for season scoring average. He is a four-time all-conference performer
who was medalist at the 2005 Allen County Athletic Conference (ACAC)
Tournament. The versatile Hueber also
competed in basketball and track at Leo, earning MVP honors at the ACAC Basketball
Tournament.
In the

Academic Honors diploma. The National
Honor Society student is active in the school’s Students Sharing Hearts Club
and as a peer tutor.
“Justin
gives of himself to help others,” says Leo principal Mark Daniel. “Numerous times I’ve seen him extend a
helping hand to those who need a kind word or assistance. He is an outstanding student and he
understands and maintains a genuine sensitivity and caring for others.”
In the
community, he is a Coffee House volunteer who has gone on several mission trips
for his church.
Hueber will
attend the University of Indianapolis as a pre-med major on an academic and
athletic scholarship.
