Natalie Gartman ‘17 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

I strive to achieve the best that I can. I push myself and work hard to reach my goals every time I hit the track. I never give up. I have maintained straight A's all through high school and currently have a 4.50 grade point average. I have done this while being on the varsity teams for cross country, soccer and track for both my Freshman and Sophmore years.  All the while still playing club soccer year round. I have decided to concentrate on just track for my junior year. I have been competing in sports including track since the first grade.  I have competed in the 200m, 400m, 800m, 100 and 400 relay and long jump.  I look to Christ and pray through the pain when pushing myself to reach a higher level.  I believe that maintaining  a Christian attitude is extremly important on and off the track. I hope to be a mentor and example to other girls on my team.
