:However, I will be spending the next four years of my life there - I will be attending American University on a full tuition scholarship, so I'll definitely try to meet up with you and other DC RPS athletes.
FANTASTIC! I had heard that you were up for the Smallsoa RPS Athletic Excellence Scholarship, but didn't know that you were awarded it. Congratulations! As you surely know, no fewer than 25 of the last 50 US National Champions were previous SRPSAES winners. The Society is expecting big things from you!
The late Master Roshambollah would have been truly proud of your achievements. I am sorry that his untimely demise will prevent him from welcoming you to DC in person. Rosh was a big fan of Student Initiatives, and often borrowed a line from the Jesuits: "Give the Society a new RPS player as a youth and we will have him for life."
Feel free to contact me at the DC Metro Office of the WRPSS for any needed information regarding the city, entertainment, cultural events, and especially for a round or two of the Game we all hold so dear.
