Makenna Pallozzi '20 Recruiting Profile

I have a 4.1 weighted  GPA  and will be graduating in 2020. My running career began as a freshman at Keller High School in Keller, TX.  I've been a varsity runner on both the cross country and track teams for all three years.  Running has become my passion and I am determined to pursue this sport at the collegiate level. In cross country, I have been part of two Texas 6A state champion teams. I twice competed at Nike Cross Nationals, where my team finished 4th overall in 2017 my sophomore year. I was selected as team captain my junior year. In track, I specialize in the 3200 and 1600 events. 

I would like to be in a rural area, but am not opposed to larger schools. I would consider all different types of schools (Division I, II, and III), but would greatly prefer to be on the east coast where most of my family is located. I would like to attend a university with a good reputation in the field of criminal justice/law enforcement. My ideal athletic environment would be one where I could make an immediate contribution to the team and have a good relationship with my coaches and teammates. 

I have lived in five different states, (West Virginia, Alaska, Idaho, Virginia, and Texas), and moved to Charlotte, North Carolina over the summer where I will finish my high school career.
