Layan Ahmed
Layan’s summer will be loaded with extraordinary activities. She already works at the retirement home near west and will continue to do that during the summer. As the summer moves along she will begin her internship at MERGE, a business based in downtown Iowa City. On top of all of that she will start her nonprofit which will connect black youth with more leadership opportunities in the community like internships, volunteering or job shadowing.
Aidan Jacobson
Aidan was another huge part of the Trojans successful track season. Aidan does not plan on playing basketball again this year, so his summer will be more laid back athletic wise. He will do less intense workouts earlier in the summer but when August comes around he will begin to ramp up hurdle work once again. With his free time he plans to do his favorite things with his friends, being outside, swimming at the pool, and playing poker .
Aiden Van Iddekinge
Aiden is finishing up his senior year as he prepares for college at the University of Iowa. Right now he says he will spend his summer doing his favorite things playing baseball with his best friends. While also spending time on the lake with family and friends. To prepare for college he says he’s going to go shopping, he will have orientation later in the summer, and he has to take a math placement test.
