Maria DelCarmen Betancourt '22 Recruiting Profile

Hello, my name is Maria DelCarmen Betancourt and throughout my life I've always found myself engaging in different sports, but I have never stayed dedicated to one, until I was recently introduced to Track and Field and from then on, I continued to practice my technique and power in field events: Shot put, Discus, and Javelin. Little by little, my dedication and progress had begun to unravel and I ended up surpassing my personal record at my first couple of track meets. However, I may be an athlete, but I am a student first and I always made sure I acquire decent grades and set many academic goals towards my future. To begin, I select my classes to support my future career plan, and that is becoming an accountant, specifically an auditor. For example, I've started attending accounting classes my school has to offer, as well as, taking high level math and business and software courses. Despite being a full-time student athlete, I organize myself to be able to attend other extracurricular activities I am involved in. Hopefully I can find the right college for me and continue the path I'm walking down, and succeed in life.
