Student Athlete, , ,

Strength in Every Season.

For Bella Champney ’26, a four-sport athlete, the journey has been defined by both winning a state championship in soccer and navigating the challenges of tough losses in basketball. Through it all, one thing has remained constant, the joy of being with her teammates.

At Mount Vernon, athletics is about more than competition. It is about connection. Bella learned that the energy you bring matters. It shapes your team, your performance, and who you become. That mindset has influenced not only how she plays, but how she leads.

As a senior, Bella hopes to leave a legacy of positive leadership, showing what it means to lift others up and lead with intention. The culture she helped build will carry forward through her teammates and future Mustangs who will one day step onto the new field.

We are $1M away from making that possible. Help them step onto their field together. Give today.
