Ian Bubar '23 Recruiting Profile

I started running road races with my father while in middle school around the age of 13. 

In middle school I ran cross country and realized pretty quickly I enjoyed the competitive edge not just with myself but against others. I was successful but still learning about the sport.

Once in  high school I made varsity in cross country and outdoor track. I listened to the captains and upper classmen about training and being a good teammate. Being a hard worker and good teammate who is open to learning has helped me tremendously.   

I'm now a junior in high school and have been named team captain. I train hard  and challenge myself and my teammates to strive to be the best that we can.  

I listen to my coaches who have guided me and have allowed me to get better with each passing year.

I played freshman and junior varsity basketball my freshman and sophomore years but realized running cross country, indoor and outdoor track was my passion.

Maintaining a good GPA is important to me as I'm optimistic colleges will see I can balance academics along with athletics.
