U.S. Senator Mike Rounds has nominated Emma Kinyon, a senior at Rapid City Stevens High School, to the U.S. Naval Academy.
Kinyon, daughter of Jason Kinyon and Megan Byrd, is a 3.9 GPA student active in FIRST Robotics, National Science Bowl, Youth Council, orchestra, and varsity soccer. She has also conducted research through the Army Educational Outreach Program.
Rounds praised her commitment to service, while Kinyon said the academy has been her goal for three years and she looks forward to serving in the Navy.
Students admitted to service academies receive a scholarship and military commission, with a five-year service obligation after graduation.
