CougarNews.com | Local student wins new car

Canyon Country teenage Crista Wyatt was trying to figure out how to buy a new car.  Not anymore.  The Canyon high junior was the lucky winner in Nissan of Valencia’s 2nd annual Nissan car giveaway.


Wyatt’s special moment came at the conclusion of an event at College of the Canyons that brought out several thousand students and parents. Daniel Sterkel, Executive Manager for Nissan of Valencia once again worked with the Hart


District to hand out hundreds of prizes totaling 25 thousand dollars.


Only 11th and 12th-grade students with a GPA of 2.0 or higher and free of suspensions were eligible for the raffle.


Four students were chosen and given keys to start the 2013 Nissan Versa.  A pair of students failed to start the car before Wyatt’s key worked.


The night’s other big winner was Hart senior Asia Antoniuk who took home a $2,500 dollar scholarship.  She is headed to the Air Force Academy later this summer.
