Teen Hall of Fame: John Fenton, Central Catholic High

At 6-foot-8 and only 17 years old, John Fenton is on top of the world.

Throughout high school, John has been heavily involved in both sports and academics and has won numerous awards over the past few years.

Not only has he been a part of the varsity football, basketball, and tennis teams, but for the past two years John also has played travel basketball for the Fresno Chaos and was one of the few who got invited to the Reebok breakout camp in Philadelphia this year.

When it comes to academics, John has taken numerous Advanced Placement and honors classes, and is a member of the Interact Club and National Scholarship Federation.

When John is not busy training for the next big game or volunteering his time helping others, he can be found hanging out with his friends, working out or playing ping-pong.

However, what really separates John from his peers is the fact that even with his incredibly busy schedule as an athlete he still finds time to give back to his community and maintain a 4.31 cumulative GPA.
