Jerret Burgess '25 Recruiting Profile

I was first introduced to track when I was in the seventh grade and instantly fell in love with the sport. When I went to practice and first saw the high schoolers throwing javelin I told myself "Someday I'm going to throw javelin and be the best". With that statement I have then been striving to become the best at everything I do on and off the track.

When I went to high school I was also introduced to hurdles and become one of our better runners through time. I work hard both on the track and in the classroom trying to keep a high GPA to give myself the best possible future I can have no matter what I decide I want to do with my life.

I am a hard worker and a team leader. I was in Boy Scouts for 5 years which gave me a lot of experience with communication and leading a team. I am also a member of my class government. 

I know that going to college is a once in a lifetime thing and would love to be a part of a collage track team and study business.
