Haylee Hass '26 Recruiting Profile

Hi! I am currently a junior at a small town school in NW Indiana. I have a large interest in participating in track and field, as well as continuing my education in college. Along with track and field, I partook in volleyball for the last four years, and I am joining the high school swim and dive team this year. I didn't have high hopes or goals when I first started track In 7th grade, but as I started to focus more, it became my life. I have many aspirations for myself for each year. I tend to write a list of 3-5 of my pre-season goals down, such as lifting weight/running times/club meets/ or time practiced. About a week before my first indoor meet I look at my prior starts (9 + 10th), competition this year, specific meets, and where I want to see myself. I will decide what my 3-5 season goals will be, and check them off as they are completed (goals + achievements below). This has really helped push me to my best ability, and helped create a scope to plan my season out the best. I think this makes me very confident in a way I am different from other recruits. I also devote a large amount of my time to academics, athletics, and attendance. I believe attendance is a critical part of anything, so I make sure to keep absences under 3 days a year if possible. Of course, my academics are crucial too, I am enrolled in many honors/dual credit courses, and I have been for many years. Lastly, athletics is a huge part of my life. I try to devote time everyday in some way, whether its running, lifting, or practicing in my at-home Pole vault setup. Overall, I think I would be a wonderful addition to many teams in lots of ways.
