"Student training is often an unglamorous and lengthy job of service. For a student much younger than me, I think it says a great deal about the goodness and character of that person. Antonio is a unique individual with a passion for athletics and a caring heart for the injured."  Rochelle Abrams, MHS athletic trainer.

Antonio Quiorz came into the world of athletic training as an eighth-grader for spring football. He attended a sports medicine summer camp in 2019 at the University of Texas and then decided he wanted to be fully involved in sports medicine.

VYPE magazine recently interviewed Antonio in an article Memorial’s Quiroz leads by example.

“I’ve seen people so happy to get back on the field playing. It’s not just a physical job, but a mental job. Some players end up out for the season. I learned to take care of people not just physically but mentally. You want those players to feel right. This program has opened my eyes, and I realize that I’m a really caring person.”

Antonio is leaving the MHS athletic training family, having received the MHS Outstanding Student Trainer Award (2021, 2022), The SBISD student taping champion,  a recipient of a Memorial Hermann Post-Secondary Scholarship, SBEF Scholarship and the MHS PTA scholarship.  

 

Antonio's dream is to continue his learning in sports medicine as a first-gen college student at Texas State.
