“I would like to thank everyone in the Indian Hill Community for the endless support over the last four years,” said Podojil. “Without this amazing school and all of the opportunities it offers, I would not be here. Most importantly I would like to thank my parents, siblings, teammates, coaches, friends, and teachers for pushing me to be my best each and every day. I would not be the person I am today without their constant support and encouragement. I am very excited to go back to my childhood home to continue my soccer career at the University of Arkansas – go Razorbacks!”
