Jasmine Hampton '24 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals are to find a program that will use my strengths in sprinting and jumping. I am hoping to join a track program that has coaches who are not only supportive but will push me to be my best. I want a track and field program that is not only a team, but a family. I want to be a positive asset to my team and I want to help the team and myself to achieve high level goals. My track and field aspirations are to be a dominant force in my events. I want to become stronger and faster and help my team win meets and championships. I am a good teammate because I am a very hard worker, I am trustworthy, and I love to encourage others. I come to practice ready to do my best. I know as a team we all have our strengths and weaknesses. I know there may be times when I have to take one for the team and do what may not be best for my individual gain. I have been a part of a relay team and that can be a little difficult when you are use to running only for yourself. Through this experience, I learned a lot about running in positions that are new, believing in my coaches, and trusting the process. I am very versatile and can be a leader for my team, or I can step back and take direction. My work ethic means a lot to me. I train year round so that my body is ready when the season hits. I have a personal trainer who works with me a couple days a week in the gym. The other days I am with my track team running, conditioning and working on technique. I take pride in myself as an athlete and ultimate goal is to be an Olympian. I also take pride in myself as a student. I have a great attendance record, I take advanced level classes and I maintain a high gpa. I feel proud of myself for showing that I can excel in class while having a very rigorous training regimen.
