Student publishes book to help high school-aged athletes

Harker junior Alexis Leo recently published a guide book for athletes titled “The Athlete Handbook.” The book contains advice for high school-aged athletes on how to build confidence, mental resilience and a balanced lifestyle. “The book grew out of my experiences as a Harker student-athlete and through Volleleaders, the nonprofit organization my sister [Alyssa, grade 8] and I founded to support youth athletes’ mental health and confidence with science-based, accessible resources,” she said. 

The book can be purchased on Amazon. Leo has also planned a launch event for Sat., Feb. 28, 4 p.m. at Sports Basement in Sunnyvale.
