FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

AUGUSTA – On Thursday, April 6^th, Senator Scott Cyrway (R-Kennebec) welcomed Kiara Carr of Fairfield and her family to the State House. During her visit, Kiara was presented with a Legislative Sentiment recognizing her achievement of scoring 1,433 points as a member of Temple Academy’s girls basketball team.

“During her junior year, Kiara joined an elite group of Maine student-athletes who have reached 1,000 cumulative points in their high school career,” said Sen. Cyrway. “Kiara was not done there. By the end of this past season, Kiara had reached 1,433 points! This is incredible.

“There is no doubt that Kiara is an extremely talented athlete. The amount of time and dedication that it would take one to reach such an accomplishment must be very great.

“I’m so proud to have such a talented student-athlete in my district. Congratulations Kiara and best wishes as you make your future plans!”
