Since my Freshman year at Loomis Chaffee, I have been a varsity athlete in basketball and volleyball.  Before switching to track and field, I've played softball since Tee ball. Because of the many years of experience throwing for softball, I am very much interested in competing in the Javelin. I am a hard working, determined and competitive student athlete. Due to attending a boarding school since the age of 14, I have grown to be independent, responsible, and organized. I am looking for a school where I can continue to be challenged both academically and athletically. I also want to be at a school with a strong sense of community and a team that feels like family.
