My name is Elijah Lucio, but most people just call me Lucio. This is my first year on the Mountain Echo Staff. In addition to joining the staff, I’ve run both cross country and track for three years. I am also a part of Soar. Outside of school, I love to hang out with friends, work out, listen to music and play/watch sports. I’m a very passionate Eagles fan, so anytime you see me, feel free to shout a “Go Birds.” I plan to continue to raise my SAT score with the hopes of getting accepted to Penn State University to major in something within the health field.
