The E. Wayne Cooley “You Can Award” is awarded by the Iowa Girls Coaches Association in appreciation of the longtime Executive Secretary of the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union, E. Wayne Cooley. The “You Can” Award illustrates the qualities of determination, character and the values of Pursuing Victory With Honor. These are attributes Mr. Cooley, the Iowa National Guard and the Iowa Girls’ Coaches Association are proud to represent.

In the nomination by PCM Volleyball Coach Sarah DeVries it says “Stravers is a positive leader on our volleyball team. Stella is a 4 year player in our school program and this is her first season as a varsity player. Even when she is not on the court playing, she is the biggest cheer leader for her teammates and always wants the best for our team as a whole. She also shows leadership and good character outside of volleyball by being an excellent student and participates in other school leadership opportunities.”
