Grace Huckstep '20 Recruiting Profile

I am entering my senior year at Western Boone High School where I compete in pole vault. I have a strong interest in continuing my athletic career beyond high school while I get my advanced education.  

I achieved two key goals in 2019:  winning the small school division at the Indiana indoor state meet, and earning outdoor All-State honors.    I plan to continue to build upon my junior year success by increasing my PR to 13'.  I would also like to consistently jump 12' by the start of the 2020 indoor season.   My three year progression:  9th grade - 9'6", 10th grade - 10'10", 11th grade -12'0" (16 years old at the time).

My college goals are:  to find a school that is a good academic fit,  to join a well-funded track program where I can improve as a vaulter and contribute to the team, and to earn an athletic scholarship that reflects my vaulting performance. 

I highly value the relationships I have built with my high school teammates, other regional pole vaulters, and the coaches that have guided me the last three years.  I look forward to building similar relationships in college.
