One scholarship winner was Daniel Logan, son of Jim and Therese Logan.  He was awarded a four year Army ROTC Scholarship to the University of North Alabama  for having achieved a meritorious record in academic studies, extracurricular participation, and athletic activities; and having demonstrated exceptional leadership potential, as well as an expressed desire to serve as an officer in the United States Army.
