Personal Commendation
from the First Lady
Michelle Obama
June 17, 2009 Nicole was the featured cover story of
the Huntsville Times. She received a
personal commendation from First Lady,
Michelle Obama, for both her athletic and academic
accomplishments on the year.
Nicole overcame some great odds during her 8th grade
year. She sustained a comprehensive “A” average, and
led her middle school basketball team to the County
Championship finals. |

This was an exceptional accomplishment given Nicole
had knee surgery in late October of 2008 and missed
one-third of the regular season. After
returning to the team, she finished the regular
season and tournament emerging as the comprehensive
leading scorer. Her ability to recover from knee
surgery and attain the highest athletic performance
of the year without blemishing her academics was
remarkable. Nicole is one of the youngest
athletes to be featured as the cover story of the
Huntsville Times. The circulation of the
Huntsville Times is approximately 75,000.
