Bay Area All-Star Scholarship Team

Emery High School's Beatriz Cuevas is the Warriors' 2011 representative on the Bay Area All-Star Scholarship Team.
In a collective effort to support youth working towards the goal of higher education, Bay Area professional sports franchises, including the Golden State Warriors, Oakland Athletics, Oakland Raiders, San Francisco 49ers, San Francisco Giants and San Jose Sharks, have teamed up for the 14th year of the Bay Area All-Star Scholarship Team (BAASST). As part of this program—the first of its kind among professional sports organizations—six high school seniors have been selected to each receive a $3,000 scholarship. Since its inception, over $200,000 has been given to local student athletes to be applied toward their college education.

Each Bay Area sports franchise will recognize this year's six Bay Area All-Star Scholarship Team recipients in a ceremony this year.

The 2011 BAASST recipients are Joshua Tabimina of Pittsburg Senior High School in Pittsburg (Oakland A’s), David Nurse of Redwood High School in Larkspur (Oakland Raiders), Beatriz Cuevas of Emery High School in Emeryville (Golden State Warriors), Katie Machado of Ann Sobrato High School in Morgan Hill (San Francisco 49ers), Jessica Terrell of Raoul Wallenberg High School in San Francisco (San Francisco Giants) and Anne Faraday of Monta Vista High School in Cupertino (San Jose Sharks).

Students were selected from high schools within ten Bay Area counties: Alameda, Contra Costa, San Francisco, Marin, Napa, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Solano and Sonoma. Each high school was provided with information about this scholarship and was encouraged to nominate candidates that met the following criteria: a minimum grade point average of 3.0, displays leadership qualities in the classroom and/or inspirational qualities on the athletic field and demonstrates the value of education, good work ethic and community outreach.
