Donthea Hines '19 Recruiting Profile

I might be Jamaican, and everyone expects me to be fast, my speed isn't where I want it to be but my expectations is to strive to be faster and the most hardworking athlete I can be.  The thing that makes me a good candidate for any team willing to recruit me, is my motto: Surprise, Surpass, Achieve (S.S.A). I'm known to most people by surprising them at most of track meets, at practice I'm not the fastest individual but I try my best to surpass the fastest, and my goals is what I try to achieve. The 400M hurdles and 4X400M aren't the only events I do, i do the 200M, 4X200M, 4X100M and 110 High Hurdles

The reasons why I'm different from other recruits is that I believe in quantity over quality. I say this because I don't care about playing D1, D2 or D3 track, I care about joining a team that has a winning attitude, having fun at practice, competitiveness  and all hope to strive for greatness like I do. My character is a very sociable one, I can make friends easily and I always try to be the peacemaker in arguments that might escalate. In athletics the greater the pressure, the more I want to step up, and be the best I can be. In academics I'm a very studious student that grind both on and off the field. My final and greatest goal is to become an athlete that the coaching staff and faculty can rely on. My profile says leonia high but i'm now attending Dumont High School and i will put up a new profile picture.
