Allison Scimia '21 Recruiting Profile

Running is not just my sport, it is my teacher. It has helped me become a better person and athlete with all that it has given me. I learned how to be a leader and to encourage and push my teammates so all of our stories can end in success. It taught me adversity and how to stay strong through injury as well as being a good teammate, supporting my friends from the sideline. It taught me dedication and hard work that continues in everything I do. It gives me the opportunity to show my competitive side and test my mental and physical strength. Running has given me a team where I can share my passion and where we can all work together to reach a common goal. I am excited to continue my love for running on a college team where I can learn and experience it with my teammates who share the love I have for the sport.
