My passion for distance running began in the 8th grade when I was unable to play football due to an arm injury. I decided to give cross country a try and since then, I have been devoted to becoming the best runner I can be and continue to encourage my teammates to challenge themselves and excel in their abilities. I helped lead my team to two state cross country meet appearances. I will never forget the friendship bonds I have formed with my teammates and coaches.
At the end of my junior year cross country season, I am a four-time letter winner in cross country and a three-time letter winner in track. I have received four Cross Country All-Conference and one Track All-Conference honors. I have have qualified as an individual for the state cross country meet for the past two years. As a track captain, I look forward to what my team can accomplish this spring.
My collegiate goals and aspirations are to obtain a college degree while running track and cross country. My major is undecided, but I am leaning towards Exercise Science or Sports Merchandising/Marketing/Managing. I would be a good candidate for a team as every day I strive to improve physically and mentally. I stand out from other athletes in that I am coachable and willing to listen to constructive criticism, I set realistic obtainable goals and believe that my team is like a family to me. Integrity is important to me and I always try to do my best in the classroom while balancing athletics with academics, faith, family and friends.
