The Florida State League Scholarship Committee and FSL President Ken Carson have awarded twelve $1,500 educational scholarships to applicants from across the League. The Bradenton Marauders have announced that Marshall Knapp has been selected as a scholarship recipient. Knapp is the son of LECOM Park Concessions Manager Chuck Knapp. Each scholarship is presented to a student employee, child or grandchild of an employee. The award is based both on financial need and achievement of a grade point average of 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale. Recipients must be at least a high school junior by the 2018 Fall Term. Knapp will be a senior at Braden River High School this fall. In addition to his academic performance, he is the drum major for the Braden River High School Marching Band of Pirates. He also plays multiple instruments and performs in the Braden River High School Wind Ensemble, the Sun Coast Honor Band, and the Sarasota Concert Band. Knapp plans to study Music Education in college with the goal of becoming a high school band director.
