From staff reports
Dylan Socha-Kachik, a junior at Oil City High School, is this year’s recipient of the annual Cole McMahon memorial “Heart of Gold” award.
The award is presented every year to an Oil City junior in honor of McMahon, a 2001 Oil City graduate who was killed in a car accident in October 2006 while on his way to his teaching assignment at Fort Leboeuf High School in Waterford.
Socha-Kachik will receive a free one-year membership to the Oil City YMCA and have his name placed on the “Heart of Gold” plaque on display at the YMCA.
