Salas, a forward for the Warriors, has left his mark all over the field.
“He’s changed his position this year from left back to midfield to forward,” said Joey Lockhart, Martin High School Head Soccer Coach. “He’s effective all over the place because he’s thinking about how the game changes.”
When in the classroom, Salas’ favorite subject is Environmental Science, but outside of the classroom, the soccer pitch teaches him life lessons.
“Overall the mentality that the sport has given me, even after a poor performance, I can be able to get right back up and learn from it and keep going,” said Salas.
You can learn more about Arlington ISD’s athletic programs across the school district.
