Sullivan Bain was born on September 18, 2006 to Bret Bain and Katrina Bain. He joined siblings Josie Bain, Ann Graf, and Max Graf. His grandparents are Chet and Jan Bain and Ron and Karen Piper.
He was a member of the Class of 2025 with the exception of first grade. Sully participated in football and cornhole.
When Sully is not busy with school, his interests are cards, cornhole, and listening to music. He is a member of the all-county cornhole team.
Sullivan’s most memorable moment was “winning a $100 bucks at post-prom.” His most embarrassing experience was getting second at the post-prom tournament, twice.
When asked what’s special about his class he says, “We get along well.” His advice to the underclassmen is, “don’t try too hard, school isn’t that hard.”
He singled out his dad, BJ, as the person that he’d like to recognize. Of his dad he says, “He shows me how to do things and he trusts me.”
As he looks forward to graduating, Sullivan’s plans for next year are to “make money and eat steak.”
Tiger Nation wishes Sully the best in his post-high school endeavors.
