Tobi Rojas - A Dedicated, Well Rounded Student

Many of us can vividly remember our freshman year, or are actively trying to forget it for that matter. I personally, can remember being so hesitant to join anything, simply out of pure nerves and anxiety. However, that is certainly not the case for one freshman in particular. 

Tobi Rojas, a 9th grader at Morro Bay High, is no stranger to extracurriculars, being in mock trial and one of the only freshmen on the varsity cheer team. He’s grown up on the Central Coast “basically” all his life, and in his free time, he enjoys roller skating, drawing, and hanging out with both his friends and his boyfriend. 

Tobi has been cheering since the first grade and initially got into it when his god brother was playing youth football. “My mom wanted me and my sister to cheer for him.” Tobi shared that part of the reason he wasn’t nervous to start freshman year was in fact because of his sister, saying, “I knew she would be by my side through the whole journey.” He also explained that this cheer season was “more of a rebuild year because we had switched between coaches”, adding that, “it was nice seeing so many people try out and be on the team, but certain people caused so much drama”.
