Junior Cash Korvola moved to Oregon from Montana when he was young, and he feels that has led to his love of traveling. For most of his life, Cash attended public schools, including Llewellyn Elementary and Sellwood Middle School. However, he decided to change it up a bit for high school by going to La Salle, driven by his eagerness for better academics, athletics, and a stronger community. While at La Salle, Cash has especially appreciated guitar and math classes, and enjoys going to many of the sporting events La Salle offers year-round. On the weekends, Cash is a comfortable guy, with lots of time spent on the couch watching football or soccer games, along with hanging out with his friends. Cash is a big Oregon Ducks football fan, and you might not want to be around him during game time because he is very passionate. In the future, Cash is looking to go to a college out of state, and is interested in majoring in sports business.
