Nubia Pereira '22 Recruiting Profile

I started running track at the indoor season of sophmore year, after moving from Spain on the same year.  I've learned the value of self-discipline and teamwork as a result of my track experience. I've learnt that your success is determined by how much work you put in when no one is looking and your coach and team aren't pushing you to be your best. Track has helped me in various areas of my life, always pushing me to be the best version of myself. Coming from a foreign country without knowing English, my coaches and teammates made me feel welcomed to the team since the first time I stept on the track, track has truly taught me what it means to be part of a team.  I believe that  I am good candidate for being a collegiate student athlete as I am extremely hard working and competitive both academically, and on the track.
