Payton Prokop '23 Recruiting Profile

Throughout my high school years my grades have progressively gotten better and better. I am a hard worker and when it comes to progress I show. I started out not having much knowledge about track and field coming into my freshmen year. When we could not have a season because of covid I did my research on this sport so I could get better at it on my off time.  When my coach asked me to join the team I loved it right off the bat. The running, the people, and the coaches are what and who make me have a passion for this sport. As the years progressed my skill and mental state of myself have grown increasingly. I am one to work hard for something I want and get better and better at it with some hard work and time. I have always dreamed of being a college athlete and seeing what is ahead of me for my future is exciting! I am that player on your team to easily get along with, work the hardest, take constructive criticism, and have fun. I cannot wait to see what track and field and college does for my future plans.
