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.

Born in Alaska, junior Ashe Hardigg moved to Portland 14 years ago and has lived there ever since. He went to Franciscan Montessori Earth School for middle school and, along with almost all of his classmates, chose to attend high school at La Salle. Ashe found a love for running during quarantine and carried this over to participating in track and field for La Salle during the spring. He also plays soccer in the fall for La Salle, in addition to playing club soccer year-round. Although out for the entirety of this year’s soccer season with a broken wrist, Ashe plans to work hard over the off-season to return a better player than ever for his senior season. Over the summer, Ashe works as a camp coach for Baxter Sports. He has attended this camp as a camper since he was five years old, and has met many friends along the way who have also gone along with him to become coaches. Ashe plans to work in sports or sports management in the future, and hopes that reporting for The Falconer will help him get an introduction to what this career would look like.
