2014 Highlights
2014-2015 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I'll be honest. I'm not in love with track. However, I am in love with winning. Nothing gets better than beating everyone and being able to declare yourself the best. I do whatever it takes to better my self, and prepare my self for the next challenge. My grades show my hard work, and so does my ACT score, because I also like winning in the classroom. I care more about winning in the classroom more than sports, actually. I love being looked at as a hard working person.
