Cameron Murray '18 Recruiting Profile

My name is Cameron Murray and I love track and field.

I have an extensive knowledge level in the sport of track and field. I have been running since I was 9 years old. Throughout my years of running track, I have gained insight that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. One of the most important lessons that I have learned is to always focus on what is to come next. Like in life, everything keeps going, even when you make a mistake. Being a student-athlete has taught me that I can recognize what went wrong and continue to concentrate on all that comes next. Becoming an athlete at an early age, has taught the importance of discipline.

Being disciplined has allowed me to become an elite student-athlete. To succeed in school, sports and life, I have to continue to make certain sacrifices to realize my ambitions. Whether it is pushing a little harder in practice or putting in that extra hour of studying, being a student-athlete has helped me learn how to prioritize my goals in order to achieve those that are most important to me.

I am looking forward to continuing my education and athletic career at the next level. Doing so will allow me to continue to expand my knowledge in my field of study, while dedicating myself to track to excel at the next level. My continued focus to excel in the classroom and my drive and determination is to become the best in the country in the Long Jump and any other event I have the opportunity to compete in.

In addition to being a student-athlete, some of things I enjoy during some of my downtime is going to the movies, watching discovery channel or animal planet, taking family vacations and volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House.
