Meridianite Haley Graham has been chosen as the Lead Intern for the 2026 State Games of Mississippi.
“Haley is the recipient of the Riley Foundation Summer Intern Grant, and we are excited to have her as part of our team this summer,” said State Games Executive Director, Missye Dozier.
A 2025 graduate of West Lauderdale High School, Haley is now an incoming sophomore at East Central Community College where she serves as goalkeeper for the Lady Warriors soccer team. Being a student-athlete has helped shape her leadership, discipline and teamwork both on and off the field.
In addition to her passion for athletics, Haley is pursuing her dream of becoming an emergency medicine physician, hoping to help others and make a difference in critical situations.
