Azulenny Ponce Wins Rotary Crystal Award
The Rotary Crystal Award has been presented annually to the outstanding senior female athlete at De Queen High School since 2000. Past winners of the award represent top students and athletes spanning over three decades at De Queen High School.
At Monday’s noon meeting of the club at Micah 6:8, Rotarian Tammy Huddleston presented the award for the 2025-2026 school year to Azulenny Ponce. Azulenny has earned Top Doubles and the Lady Leopard Pride Award during her three-year tennis career at De Queen High School. She has competed in basketball for six years. As a member of the 2025 Lady Leopards state championship team, Azulenny was named the Most Improved Player. Ponce is also a four-year starting goalkeeper for the Lady Leopards soccer team, earning all-conference honors the past three seasons.
Azulenny is very active in various organizations at De Queen High School. She currently serves as president of the Student Council, Future Business Leaders of America, and the Technology Student Association, where she’s a three-time state champion in Photographic Technology. She’s the vice-president of National Honor Society and has over 40 hours of community service. Ponce was the first runner-up in this year’s Miss D.H.S. pageant. She’s an active member of the First Baptist Church youth group and has participated in mission trips to Colorado and New Orleans.
Azulenny also excels in the classroom with a 4.1385 grade point average, and she scored a 23 on the A.C.T. Test. After graduation in May, Ponce plans to attend the University of Central Arkansas in Conway to pursue a major in Business Marketing and a minor in Entrepreneurship, followed by earning a master’s degree in business. Azulenny’s career goal is to work in sports media marketing or become a marketing manager. In addition, she plans to obtain her esthetician license and open her own business.
Besides performance in sports, The Rotary Crystal Award is also based on character, leadership, scholastic achievements, and participation in other school and community activities.
