Kale Emerson '23 Recruiting Profile

Hello! My name is Kale Emerson and I am a 400m and 800m runner. I go to Sedona Red Rock High School and I plan on pursuing nursing in College. I am in a College Program which allows me to get an Associate of Art by the time I graduate High School. In my freshman year of High School, I decided to do the track season which allowed me to see if running was for me. However, it was cut short and I was only able to run once in a meet. I decided to run cross country my sophomore year and I broke the 20 min mark but it wasn't enough for me to run track the following season. In my Junior year I decided to not run cross country, but when the track season rolled around my friend convinced me into doing it. As the season went on I kept getting better, achieving a PR in every 400m dash I did this season. Most importantly I was enjoying this sport to its fullest with my amazing coaches who taught me and supportive teammates who are now great friends.
