Robert Pereira honored with three scholarships

March 2011, Robert was first honored with receiving a substantial scholastic scholarship from Arizona State University and was accepted in to the W.P. Carey School of business.

May 2011 (Last night), Robert received two additional scholarships through Heritage High School.  The first one was awarded from the Heritage High School Baseball program (Rob was 1 of 3 players to receive a scholarship from the program). 

The second one was in honor of Carl B. Casey. Mr. Casey passed away last year and in his honor and for the love of baseball (& golf) the family created this scholarship.  Mr. Mark Casey introduced the award on behalf of his wife and mother who were also in the audience.  Mark informed the filled auditorium what his Dad's passions were and how this scholarship represents what his Dad liked to see in a player.   ... and the player selected as the first recipient of the award is Robert Pereira.  Wow, what a surprise and what and honor! 

Thank you to the entire Casey family, what an honor for Robert (& the entire Pereira family)... and congratulations to Robert for demonstrating the qualities most admired by a long time fan of baseball!
