Grace McNeill '22 Recruiting Profile

I have been running since freshman year, and I love the atmosphere of  track and cross country teams! When I was a freshman I played volleyball in the fall and then joined the track team during winter and spring. Although I did sprinting and hurdling as a freshman my coaches and friends convinced me to join the cross country team the following fall. I enjoyed cross country a lot more than I expected, but it was not until recently during my senior year cross country season that I realized how deeply I love distance running! I feel that I have a lot of potential, and I am excited to continue my athletic career at the collegiate level! As for academics, I plan to Major in political science and environmental studies In hopes to become an environmental lawyer. I am extremely passionate about environmental protection, not only am I already working with an environmental lawyer as my mentor to strive for changes is local wildlife policies, but I hope to make many positive changes in my future though a higher education.
