Congratulations to Sarah Kuehl ’04, who was inducted into the Girls Catholic High School Athletic Association (GCHSAA) Hall of Fame on April 11th! A top multi-sport athlete during her time at Molloy, Sarah played four years of soccer, four years of basketball, and ran track for two years. Sarah was also an exceptional student, as she would speak before her peers at their graduation ceremony in June 2004 as Molloy’s first-ever female Valedictorian. Each year, the GCHSAA recognizes outstanding women who not only made significant contributions to the league as student-athletes, but who also continue on to lead lives of purpose while making a positive impact on our world. Sarah was among nine other esteemed honorees at this year’s ceremony.
Earlier in the day, Sarah returned to Molloy to speak to Stanners about her career journey. After graduating from high school, she attended the US Naval Academy and graduated with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering. She then served eight years Active Duty as a Nuclear Surface Warfare Officer, completing sea deployments on the USS Mesa Verde and USS Enterprise as well as tours supporting the Joint Chiefs of Staff and U.S. European Command Joint Logistics. Later, in search of a life change, Sarah joined JPMorgan Chase, and is now the Program Director supporting Chase Wealth Management Investment Operations! She continues to serve as a Lieutenant Commander in the US Navy Active Reserves at the Washington DC Navy Yard.
To end her presentation, Sarah answered an array of questions from students, including why she chose to attend the Naval Academy, what she experienced during Active Duty, how she decided to apply to JPMorgan Chase, and what it means to be a leader.
Congratulations Sarah, and thank you for taking the time to come and speak to our students! Congratulations to all of this year’s GCHSAA Hall of Fame inductees.
