Congressman Tiffany Announces United States Service Academy Nominations

WAUSAU, WI -- Congressman Tom Tiffany (WI-07) has announced nine students from Wisconsin's Seventh District who were nominated to a U.S. service academy. All high school students admitted into our nation’s military service academies must first receive a nomination from at least one member of their state’s Congressional Delegation, the Vice President, or the President of the United States.

“I would like to congratulate these nine hard-working and dedicated high school students on receiving my nomination to a United States service academy,”said Congressman Tom Tiffany. “These students are striving to serve something much bigger than themselves, and I cannot wait to see this next generation of young leaders answer the call to defend our nation.”

Students who have received a nomination to a U.S. service academy must still receive an offer of admission into an academy. If admitted, they will be offered the distinct honor of earning a four-year university education with the commitment of serving in the military for a minimum of five years upon graduation.

The following students received a nomination to a U.S. service academy:

United States Military Academy West Point

  • Lucas Sydlewski of Houlton, WI – Missouri Military Academy
  • Bennett Hatfield of Hudson, WI – Hudson High School

United States Air Force Academy

  • Megan DeLeasky of Phillips, WI – Phillips High School
  • Isaac Anderson of Hudson, WI – Hudson High School

United States Naval Academy

  • Mark Jarman of Lake Nebagamon, WI – Northwestern High School
  • Shelby Hennlich of New Richmond, WI – New Richmond High School
  • Ingrid Holter of Hudson, WI – Hudson High School
  • Ryan Buehler of Ogema, WI – Rib Lake High School

United States Merchant Marine Academy

  • Hunter Beese of Amery, WI – Amery High School

The U.S. Coast Guard Academy manages its own selection process and does not require a congressional nomination for appointment. This year’s nominees were selected by a local panel of judges based on academic achievements, civic involvement, leadership skills, physical aptitude, and character through an interview process.
