Chandler Gibbens '19 Recruiting Profile

I started running when I was in elementary school. My brothers played soccer in high school and I would run around the track during the game. People would come up to me after the game and praise how much I ran, and my parents would have strangers come up to them and ask "How far has he gone?? I've counted six laps!" Since then I have always run on a track team. I have had my love for this sport reaffirmed through time off from injury and illness. Now I spend a lot of my time watching running videos on Flotrack and Youtube and running. 

I hope to continue to run while also getting a great education. I hope to eventually go to law school, and academics are extremely important to me. I have learned to balance sports and academics well throughout my high school career and I will continue to balance them through my college career as well.
