CARSON, Calif. - Logan Lister is Recognized for Academic and Athletic Excellence; Selected to Play in Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl.
The United States Marine Corps is recognizing exemplary student athletes across the country through the Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl. Now in its third year, the game will feature 90 student athletes selected from across the country based on their athletic prowess, academic success and embodiment of the Marine Corps values of honor, courage and commitment.
Logan, a tight end from Katy High School, Katy, TX, is among those selected to participate in the nationally televised Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl. The game will be broadcast on January 5, 2014, live on Fox Sports 1 at 6 p.m. PST from The StubHub Center in Carson, Calif.
“I’m excited about competing with the best players in the nation and playing on Sunday,” said Lister, committed to Rutgers University.
The student athletes selected for the Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl exhibit a drive similar to Logan in that they have more than outstanding athletic ability – they also exemplify youth leadership and are committed to building life skills both on and off the field.
The Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl is the culmination of the Marine Corps’ Semper Fidelis Football Program, which also includes an All-American Selection Tour. Through the program, the Marine Corps purposefully engages with well-rounded student athletes to share leadership lessons that will enable future success.
Training with the Marines was much different than regular high school workouts,” said Lister. “It was much higher paced and more intense than what most of us are use too. I also noticed the Marines are a lot more disciplined, confident, and more detail oriented than most people I know.” He added that he wanted to take back how to become an all-around better person and how to push himself harder.”
