Personal Statement
My name is Maria (Mia) Alamo-Worley and I am a rising senior at North Buncombe High School. I have been involved in competitive athletics since the 6th grade when I began a full-time women's gymnastics competitor. I began pole vaulting the summer of 2015 and wish to continue into college. I am a good candidate for a college women's track team because I can persevere through competitive barriers, balance academics and athletics, and overcome adversity in many facets of life.
