Maggie Peterson, Business Manager
Maggie Peterson, a senior at Pleasant Valley High School, is the current Business Manager for the Spartan Shield Online. Because of her dedication to academics, Peterson was inducted into the National Honor Society. In addition to focusing her time on academics, Peterson has been actively involved in travel softball for Xtreme Havoc since she was a measly six years old. Her freshman year, Peterson experienced a severe back injury from softball that caused her to need an invasive surgery. “My favorite memory from high school is missing a month of school my freshman year to heal from my surgery,” Peterson says. With perseverance, her long-time commitment to this sport led her team to winning the 2019 USA Illinois State Championship. Her passion for the sport will continue as Peterson plans to continue softball at St. Ambrose University. She has decided to major in psychology with hopes to further her education in graduate school to study speech pathology. In her free time, Peterson can be found watching the Cubs as she is a “hardcore Cubs fan and always will be,” she says.
