🎓 SENIOR SPOTLIGHT 🎓
Blake Austin Eitel will be a 2022 graduate of Milan C-2 High School and is the son of Paul and Deanna Eitel and brother of Kelsey Eitel. His favorite activity to do with his family is showing horses across the state. His favorite childhood memory is when his sister took him turkey hunting and they were successful in killing a turkey.
Blake has been involved in Football 4 years, FFA 4 years, Trap Shooting 4 years at Milan C-2. Throughout his FFA career, he served as FFA Chapter Vice President 1 year, FFA Chapter president 1 year, FFA Area 3 Vice President 1 year, as well as serving his class as Vice President 1 year.. The activity he enjoys most is FFA and trap shooting because he enjoys getting to travel with the teams and to do things he enjoys like shooting trap and judging livestock. His favorite high school memory is when he got to go to FFA Nationals on a Livestock Team.
The class Blake enjoyed the most was shop class because he could take a piece of metal and turn it into something usable. He also enjoyed being able to weld things that were broken to repair them or when making new things. His biggest pet peeve is when people want you to help them, then they don't do anything and hope you will do it for them.
Outside of school, Blake enjoys showing horses, showing goats, hunting, and fishing. If he had one wish it would be to be able to go hunting and fishing more often. The three words that best describe him are talkative, outgoing, and hard-working.
After High School, Blake plans to attend NCMC acquiring a degree in Agriculture. In 10 years, he sees himself running a cow-calf operation raising red angus cattle as well as raising quarter horses and boer goats. Three things on his bucket list are to watch the NFR in person, go elk hunting, and win a world title showing horses.
The person he admires most is his sister, Kelsey, because he has watched her go through FFA and work extremely hard on the livestock she showed and do the things that she enjoyed the most. The coach that had the biggest impact on Blake is Coach Duffy because Duffy was his coach for 6 years and helped him a lot in football.
The thing Blake will miss the most about Milan C-2 High School is being able to play the very competitive games of volleyball with the other seniors in P.E.. If there was one way he could be remembered at MHS, it would be as someone that was very competitive especially in FFA judging livestock. The advice Blake would give underclassmen is, “Work as hard as you can because when you work hard to achieve a goal something good will happen as long as you work for it.”
Good luck to our Golf team as they head to Kirksville to compete today!
