Warren Pelletier '26 Recruiting Profile

As a young child, I tried various town and club sports, but never really found the right fit on an athletic team until I began my track career in Middle School. Our Middle School team was fairly large for a small town, and I was encouraged to try different events including long jump, the 100m, 200m, relays, and throwing events. Although I earned points for my team running and jumping, I quickly discovered I had the strength, agility, and speed to not only throw far, but outthrow my competition at every meet. When I entered High School, I was able to add javelin and hammer, and the winter of my sophomore year my school invested in weight throw. By the end of my sophomore year held the school record in hammer and weight throw - which I still hold with even higher distances through my junior year.

I attended throwing camps the summers before my sophomore and junior years (Elite Throws Coaching), as well as began training with a local throwing group (Throwhawks) the summer before my junior year. Over the past year, I've been working on transitioning my glide shot put throw to a rotational throw, as well as increasing my distances across all throwing events. This past year, I attended our Class S State Meet for shot (indoor and outdoor), discus (outdoor), and hammer (outdoor - there is no indoor weight throw meet), and attended the Nike Indoor Nationals for weight throw and the Adidas Outdoor Nationals for hammer.

Longer term, my goals include attending an ABET Accredited Mechanical Engineering program at a college or university in or around the New England area where I can continue to learn and grow as a thrower on their track team. I am a dedicated student athlete, taking a demanding course load in and out of the STEM classes, maintaining at least Honor Roll recognition (if not High Honor Roll) each quarter and a 4.17 GPA. When not throwing or studying, I play drums in my school's Symphonic Band and Jazz Ensemble, I am out hunting for US and foreign coins and currency as a numismatist, or I am playing vintage and current video games with friends.
