MANKATO, MN -

 Connor Tanhoff has found his equation for success. Connor says, "I'm in basketball, football, president of the Student Council, Key Club, Knowledge Bowl..that's about it." It all adds up to prove that this Loyola senior knows how to lead even when he leaves the classroom.  Connor says, "I like leading people and just being involved keeps me busy, so I don't have to just sit at home, I have something to do all the time" He says he strives to be a role model to the younger students he sees each day in the halls.  "I just try to do as much as I can around the school. And he does a lot around the community as well. "I participated in Rake the Town, I collected cans for Kids Against Hunger and Miracle League and I work with SMILES." After high school, Tanhoff plans to attend MSU-Mankato to study Business. Connor Tanhoff, a KEYC Rising Star.
