Madilyn Portner was nominated as a Beck’s Player with Heart for her commitment and passion on and off the court. What she loves most about high school sports is the relationships she has made with her teammates and coaching staff. Being able to grow together as dancers and as a team is something special to her. Madilyn is involved in New Ulm Just For Kix, New Ulm Eagles Varsity Dance Team, FFA, student council, and FCCLA. For both FFA and student council, she is on the officer team as a secretary. Madilyn also participates in the New Ulm Royalty program as a Princess, the Brown County Dairy Association as a Princess, the Brown County Pork Producers as an ambassador, and New Ulm Community Meals. Together, these organizations give her various volunteer opportunities. To Madilyn, agriculture means supporting the worldwide population as it continues to grow. Agriculture is more than growing crops or raising livestock, it’s about the personal reward of knowing she is contributing to something bigger than herself. Growing up and living on a farm has taught her lifelong qualities such as a strong work ethic, responsibility, and commitment. Madilyn's plans, although not final, are to attend the University of Minnesota- Twin Cities with hopes of becoming a large animal veterinarian.
