Elliot Echols, Rome

August 9, 2011 Go to comments Leave a comment Member Spotlight

Elliott Echols is a 21-year old superstar athlete at Berry College in Rome, playing on the men’s tennis team in intercollegiate competition. Going into his senior season, he’s looking to make a huge impact. It doesn’t end there, though, as Echols also is credited with reviving the Berry College Republicans chapter before taking the reins as the State Chairman of the Georgia Association of College Republicans. He also re-chartered six CR chapters in a mere two months, and raised $1,200 for the President’s Day fundraiser.

A fierce competitor on the tennis court and campaign trail, Echols demonstrates the tenacity and competitive spirit that help the Georgia Young Republicans stand up for conservative principles that we need. We’re proud to recognize Elliott Echols’s contributions, and look forward to seeing more impact from him in the future.
