Meet William Mitchell
William Mitchell is our first CSA winner that is not a Pittsburgh area native. William is from Baltimore Maryland and came to Pittsburgh by way of the Kiski School. William graduated from the same high school that CSA Founder, Major Canady also earned his high school diploma from. William started off his freshmen year at another school, but wanted to find somewhere that was little more aligned with his wrestling future and academic goals. That is how he came across The Kiski School. This was the best decision William could have made not only for academic reasons, but more importantly his social development. See below William’s thoughts on his three year journey at Kiski:
“My experience was life-changing because it helped me create relationships with new friends and help make new connections with people around the United States. The Kiski School prepared me for the next phase of my life because the school helped me become more social.”
During his senior campaign, William committed to continue his wrestling career at Washington and Jefferson College located in Washington Pennsylvania. Along with wrestling, William will be studying Exercise Science. See below why he made this college choice and his field of study:
“I chose this college because this school has small classes and they will help me out a lot academically as far as extra help and personal one-on-one learning. My major is exercise science and I want to be a personal trainer when I grow up. I want to find a way to help people reach their physical wellness goals and tell them what they need to do to help them achieve it. Also, I’m looking forward to D3 wrestling. I really want to leave my mark and let people know that I’m serious about what I do in wrestling.”
CSA then asked William is there something in particular he wants the audience to know about him. See his response below:
“I’m like a pineapple, rough on the outside but sweet on the inside when she gets to know me. Some people look at me and think that I am a mean person but once they talk to me they really enjoy being around me.”
Please wish William the best of luck as he embarks on the best chapter of his life yet. Great luck William, we are rooting for you here at CSA!
