Personal Statement
I’m Ella and my main events are pole vault and 100m hurdles! I am a very driven athlete. I dedicate my time year round to track and field. I am a part of the Jets Track Club that I compete in summer & indoor meets with. I do events such as pentathlon, 100m hurdles, pole vault, sprint relays, and high & long jump. I have attended the Junior Olympics (2x) and I am also on the varsity track team at Festus High School. My events include pole vault, 100m hurdles, sprint relays, and high & long jump. In pole vaulting, I concluded my junior year as a All-Conference (1st), All-District (1st), All-Sectional (1st), and All-State (3th) in the Missouri class 4 competition ending with a PR of 11’0. To also conclude my sophomore year in hurdles, I am a All-Conference (3rd), All-District (3rd), All-Sectional (3rd), and qualified for state with a PR of 16.7. All my accomplishments as well as my dedication & effort show that I’m a great choice of athlete to be able to compete at the collegiate level.
