Julie Bach '26 Recruiting Profile

As a student athlete, I'm committed to pushing myself on the track and in the classroom. I like to challenge myself because it leads to growth. I used to run distance-focused events, with my main event being the 3200,  but this year I made a shift to try and excel in the 800, even getting my school's school record for the event. I not only embraced the change, but continued to dominate, if not more than before. That transition challenged me in new ways and it showed me how much I enjoy adapting, learning, and competing at a high level. 

I bring that same mindset in everything I do. I'm driven and coachable. I'm focused on constant improvement not only for myself, but for my team as well. In fact, I run the 4x4 for my track team and we all worked together to earn our school 4x4 record and go sub 4 minutes. I'm the type of athlete who leads by example, values discipline, and thrives under pressure.

Running in college isn't just a goal, but a challenge I'm ready for. I'm excited to contribute to a program that values passion for the sport and team culture.
