Celebrating Talon – A 2025 Positive Athlete Honoree!

We are incredibly proud to share that Talon Cappasola, a student-athlete with Wiseburn Da Vinci Archery, has been named one of the Top 7 Most Positive Boys Athletes in Los Angeles by the 2025 Positive Athlete program!

This prestigious recognition comes after more than 12,000 student-athletes and coaches from over 3,300 high schools across the country were nominated. Out of all those deserving individuals, fewer than 1% were selected as award winners—making Talon’s honor truly exceptional.

Talon embodies what it means to be a Positive Athlete: leadership, perseverance, and an uplifting presence both on and off the field. His recognition places him among the best of the best, and we couldn’t be prouder of his accomplishments and character.

Talon will be officially celebrated at the 2025 Los Angeles Positive Athlete Awards this summer. Stay tuned award announcements, and join us in congratulating Talon for this incredible achievement! 🎉

Way to go, Talon! 🐺⚡️
