Congratulations to Zoe Lopez of Glen Oak!

Congratulations to Zoe Lopez of Glen Oak! On March 24, 2016, Senator Ed Hernandez honored Zoe with the Emerging Leader award for breaking all preconceived ideas of girls in sports and helping to change notions about the physical strength of women.
Zoe was one of fourteen women honored during Women's History Month for playing a significant role in shaping the economic, cultural, and social fabric of our society.
A letter from Senator Hernandez stated that Zoe’s contributions, accomplishments, and service to the San Gabriel Valley have made you worthy of this commendation.”
