Jaden Harper, Staff Writer

Hello, my name is Jaden Harper and I am a junior at Stroudsburg High School. This is my first year working on the Mountaineer. I am also a participant in Model Congress and the Chairperson of Business Partnerships in FBLA. I enjoy watching and covering sports when I am not busy with my extra-curricular activities. I currently reside as the school's sports reporter, covering all sports. In my free time I enjoy rooting on my Philadelphia Phillies and running my own wiffle ball league called the Premier Wiffle Ball Association (PWA). I am excited to get to work.
