Dos Pueblos cross country and track & field standout Eamon Gordon was named the CIF State Male Scholar-Athlete of the Year for 2025.
Gordon was selected as this year’s male honoree alongside the female honoree, Aquilin Hsiao of Edgewood High in West Covina.
The pairing will be recognized at the State Capitol in Sacramento on May 29, where each will receive a $10,000 scholarship.
“Aquilin and Eamon represent the very best of education-based athletics, balancing academic excellence with standout athletic performance,” CIF Executive Director Ron Nocetti said. “Their dedication, discipline, and leadership make them truly deserving of this prestigious recognition.”
Along with running on the cross country and track teams, Gordon is the founder and developer of Financedu.org, a web app and financial education course for middle and high school students.
He is also an Eagle Scout, a National Honor Society member and a National Merit Commended Scholar.
“In running, physics, and scouting, mentoring, and caring for others sparked growth in myself,” Gordon said to CIF. “Through my experiences and the support I received from others, I learned the value of understanding and appreciating the perspectives of others to both achieve success and empower others to achieve their own success.”
Gordon will be attending UCLA in the fall.
