Reiss Wegman '18 Recruiting Profile

    I've had a passion for running from a very young age. Growing up in a small rural community has not presented many opportunities. Through my life I've learned to persevere and am proud of the accomplishments I've made, however up to this point in my life I've never recieved any real coaching. My school never offered cross country so I ran as an individual through junior high. A parent run XC program began my sophomore year and continued through my junior year. While I was happy to be able to run on a team, I still did not receive legitimate coaching.  This past track season was the first time the distance squad had a true coach. This has been the fist time in my life I have benefited from what most athletes have had since sixth grade. I have a lot of untapped potential and because of this wish to continue my running career on the collegiate level.
