Personal Statement

I am a Senior at Marshfield (MA) High School. In my three years, I competed at the varsity level 10 times (Cross Country (2), Indoor (4), and Outdoor (4), and accomplished the following:

· Qualified for the Massachusetts Division II State Meet  10 times

· Qualified for the Massachusetts All State Meet 5 times, Indoor (3), Outdoor (2)

• Qualified for New England Championships three times, Indoor (1), Outdoor(2)

· Finished as an Atlantic Coast League Champion 5 times (600m/800m)

· Voted an Atlantic Coast League All Star 6 times

· Recognized as a West Gate Media Super Track Athlete three times and received honorable mention twice

· Recognized twice as a Patriot Ledger All Scholastic Indoor and Outdoor Track recipient

· Captain : Outdoor track 2016 and 2017 and Indoor track 2016

· New Balance Indoor Nationals Qualifier 2017: Our relay finished 15th in the SMR, I ran anchor leg

· New Balance Outdoor Nationals Qualifier 2017: SMR running anchor and 800m Emerging Elite race

·  Surpassed school 800m record with 2:13.66

My Junior outdoor season was highlighted winning the South Shore Principles Twilight Meet (800m), finishing 3rd at the MIAA Division II State Championship, finishing 8th at the Massachusetts All State Meet (with a personal best 2:16.79), and finishing 18th at the New England Track & Field Championship Meet. I was also one of two athletes chosen to represent Marshfield High School at the National Girls and Women in Sports Day.

My Senior year, I was the ACL 600m champion. We qualified for the championship race at New Balance Indoor Nationals with a 4:12.98 in the Sprint Medley Relay.   I qualified for Massachusetts All State Meet.

My high school team won the ACL title for Cross Country in 2014 (undefeated), Indoor Track in 2014 (undefeated) and 2016, and Outdoor track in 2015. We were the Massachusetts State Track Coaches Association (MSTCA) Division II Indoor State Relay Champions in 2014 and were awarded the 2016 MIAA and MSTCA Division II Joan Doherty Team Sportsmanship Award. This Spring, we received the ACL Sportsmanship Award for outdoor track.

Besides competing in track and school,  I competed in Irish Step dancing for 13 years.  It is a very physical sport and highly competitive. Currently, I was an Open Champion (the highest level) and I have competed at the New England Oireachtas (Regionals) and twice at the North American Irish Dance Championships (Nationals). 

During the school year, I am extremely busy. I challenge myself academically and I am a member of the National Honor Society. This past Summer and Fall, I was enrolled in Shea Training Systems where I worked on strength and conditioning 2-3 times a week. I also participated in a weekend Complete Track & Field Clinic held at Harvard University and twice participated in a weeklong Foss Running Camp in New Hampshire.


I feel that I would make a good candidate for a collegiate track team because I am hard working, very competitive, attentive, and respectful of authority. My coach and trainers have described me as quiet, but mentally tough. I always strive to win. My goals for my remaining high school years include setting a school record and continuing to qualify for All States and New England’s. I would also like to qualify for the New Balance Outdoor Nationals, while maintaining my Honors level GPA.
