Zoey Schillinger '20 Recruiting Profile

    Up until 5th grade I hadn't really given much thought to participating in any sports and that's when I joined the running club at my elementary school in North Carolina.  There my love of running blossomed and since then I haven't really ever stopped at least not for any extended periods of time.  One of the reasons I am drawn to running is that there are no excuses or luck involved. You show up to compete and you go as hard as you can and if that's not good enough then you have to keep working harder to get yourself in the best position possible. This is what I strive to do everyday and I think one of my best qualities is that I show up everyday ready to do whatever it takes to succeed.
