Heather Pare '25 Recruiting Profile

I have played many sports in my lifetime, whether that was gymnastics when I was four years old or softball in seventh grade, I have always loved being competitive. Ever since my eighth grade year, I have loved track. I love the people, the determination from the other athletes and the camaraderie between teams. During the same year I had the opportunity to jump with another coach, she hosted practices for High jumpers all around the city and invited their coaches as well. We had practices together and we all helped each other and it was a great group that only continued to expand.

My goal is to run track at the collegiate and professional level. I work year round and I take advantage of the offseason to get stronger and faster while also working on my technique. I am a good candidate for the team because I am very coachable and I apply what I learn to help my peers. I also perform well under pressure, many of my personal bests have been at league and district meets. I am determined to get to the collegiate level and I am determined to get better every chance I get. I believe there is still a lot more I can achieve and bring to the table. 

In college, I want to major in Engineering. I love solving puzzles and figuring out how the world works. I have attended summer camps focusing on Engineering and I found them very interesting and they have further propelled me into going into the field. Academics have always been my number one priority and I am able to balance my academics and extracurriculars well. I have been awarded the CHL academic award all three years of my high school track career and have received Honor Roll since middle school. I am determined to maintain a high GPA and I have never let my grades prevent me from running in Track.
