Three $5,000 scholarships were awarded this summer to recent Berkner High School graduates Will Harris, Victoria Malott and Catalina Malott through the Sherrill Park Golf Course/Two Dads and a Coach scholarship program. The scholarship is awarded yearly to a senior on the golf team at Berkner High School and has been endowed thanks to the generosity and support of Nathan and Bonnie Shea of Richardson, and Kevin and Cristi Ryan, also of Richardson.
The scholarship is allotted through the Northern Texas PGA Foundation in the name of Sherrill Park Golf Course/Two Dads and a Coach in honor of Bonnie’s father, Coleman Looper, and Kevin’s father, Terry Ryan, and also Nathan Shea, who was the Berkner High School golf coach from 1990-98. The Sheas and Ryans grew up in Richardson and are graduates of Berkner High School. Coleman and Terry are longtime golfers at Sherrill Park Golf Course.
Harris will be attending the University of Texas at Austin where he plans to major in communications. Victoria Malott will be attending University of Texas at Dallas where she plans to major in neuroscience/psychology. Catalina Malott will be attending Dallas College’s Richland Campus where she plans to major in literature.
