Tacoma: Shelton-Mason County Journal - Senior bailer dedicated to !helping others By EMILY HANSON For the last decade, Jor- danne Krumpols has been dedicated to playing basket- ball. Krumpols, a senior and third-yearvarsity point guard for the Lady High- climbers, said she began playing through the youth recreation Jordanne league in I~umpols Shelton. "Bas- ketball sounded like fun and it's a second sport for me to get in shape for my main sport," she said. "I stuck with it to stay in shape. It's also fun and I like being really ag- gressive and getting after the ball." Head girls' basketball coach Aaron Leth said Krumpols has been show- ing great leadership on the team. "She's been varsity for the last three years and she's dedicated to grades, her family, her team and her church," he said. Krumpols' main sport, she said, is fastpitch- which she's played for the last ten years as well. "I started playing fast- pitch through the league Shelton used to have and continued through the se- lect league," Krumpols said. "I like being able to play, get down and dirty, go at it hard and take girls out because I'm the catcher." Along with being a two-sport varsity athlete, Krumpols maintains a 3.4 to 3.6 GPA, is enrolled in honors classes and is also a member of the honor soci- ety. "I'm looking at Central Washington University, South Puget Sound and Western Oregon for school next year," Krumpols said. "All of them have firefight- ing programs and have fast- pitch. I want to find a mix- ture of the both of them." She said her goal is to be- come a firefighter and para- medic. "I like the medical stuffso I thought paramedic would be a good choice for me," Krumpols explained. "I've also been doing a recruit- ment class through [Mason County] Fire District 5." Outside of school and sports, Krumpols ~said her family is her number one priority and that she enjoys See Athlete on page C-3 Thursday, December 1,2011, Page C-1
