Ellen Merkley, Staff Writer
Ellen Merkley is a junior and second-year staff writer for the Statesman at LHS. When Merkley is not at LHS, you can find her on the track running, yoga-ing it up at IGNITE and taking naps. She is a one-trick pony with her sport, track, in which she is a part of the team that holds the state 4x1 record. She also holds various school records. One way to win Merkley's heart over is with any type of energy drink; it is her addiction.
