Camryn Quinn '25 Recruiting Profile

My name is Camryn Quinn and I am a rising senior in the class of 2025 at Panther Creek High School. I’m a distance runner, looking for a competitive college program at a school with strong academics in North Carolina or surrounding states. I run XC, Indoor and Outdoor track competing primarily in the 5k, 3200, 1600 & 4x800. 

I’m fully committed, and you will find I’m of the most driven and determined in both academics and athletics. I did not run competitively in middle school and I don’t have the experience that some of my colleagues have, but that also means I am more likely to continue to make larger improvements on my times as I gain more experience in fitness and race strategy. 

In my freshman year, I joined the team with a goal to simply be in the top 7 varsity group, a strong 4A team made up of primarily upperclassmen. I reached my goal the first race and finished my first ever XC season on both All Conference and All Regional Teams. Sophomore and Junior year I've worked on getting stronger and building up mileage. 

I've finished both years winning my conference meet as runner of the year and placed 2nd in the region my junior year. 

I've added cross training and weekly strength sessions. I have proven myself as a leader, a continuous contributor to the team both in points scored and a radiator of positivity. 

Going into my senior year I have set ambitious, yet realistic goals. I’m very excited to see what the XC season brings as I jump into finding the right college program to continue my career. Academically I have a 4.2 GPA taking a rigorous course load with honors and AP classes as well as college classes my senior year.

I look forward to meeting coaches, learning about the programs that may be a good match for me and visiting the colleges to determine next steps in my future.
