Personal Statement

I hope to run collegiate track at the highest competitive level possible. I also want to earn my degree in either Business Management or International Business. Although my favorite events are the 100 and 200 meters, I'm willing to help my team in any event where I'm needed and can perform well. I work very hard to be the best I can be as a student-athlete and I have fun being part of a great team that wants to succeed working together. Although I've only run track for about five years, this is a sport that I really love.

I am ambitious and believe in improving my abilities through hard work and dedication. My Coaches and Dad tell me that I'm very coachable and this has helped me achieve lots of my personal goals and prepare me for being a good student-athlete in the future. I think that building a good, strong relationship with my coach and my teammates will allow us all to celebrate lots of successes together.
