Pitzer ProfilesSean Cashwell '10| Albuquerque, NM
By his senior year in high school, Sean averaged twenty points per game, and was named the Group A-AAA player of the year. Not only did it provide him with an athletic outlet, he explains, “It helped me learn leadership as well as teamwork. It opened up opportunities for me both socially and for college.” His passion didn’t end there, though. Sean made sure that he branched out into other social and academic arenas as well. As a student, he took challenging classes, and became a member of both the National Honor Society and the French National Honor Society. Outside of school, Sean volunteered at the Albuquerque Rescue Mission’s soup kitchen. He also worked with a nonprofit organization called Lap Dog Rescue, which rescues beaten and abandoned dogs, and finds them homes. Sean now plays on the Pitzer-Pomona basketball team, and is doing well. “I was recruited to come here and play and I have enjoyed playing with other members of the team.” He continues, “I hope to become the best basketball player I can possibly be after my four years here, and I am pondering the idea of possibly playing basketball overseas one day.” Sean hopes to major in either math or science, but he explains, “My options are wide open.” —Jaime Swarthout ’09
