This week’s Senior Spotlight shines on Tryhsten Langley! Tryhsten has been part of the Storey County School District for the past six years and currently holds an impressive 3.5 GPA. A dedicated athlete, Tryhsten has played both football and baseball at VCHS for the past four years. Outside of school, he enjoys spending time with his girlfriend and working. One of Tryhsten’s favorite high school memories is hanging out with his teammates after football games—especially early morning trips to Denny’s and playing hacky sack in the parking lot. After graduation, Tryhsten plans to join the U.S. Coast Guard and continue building a bright future. Congratulations, Trysten!
