Ara Daugherty '19 Recruiting Profile

I am a future 2019 graduate of Mineral Wells High School in Texas. I have had a passion for running since my first field day in elementary school. I discovered the true beauty of competition in running, I was instantly hooked and every field day I was sure to push myself as hard as I could. Even though my interests in sports have varied a bit through the years, track and field has always been my main focus. There's nothing as addicting as the adrenaline rush when I step out on the track or get ready to go all out on a jump. Ever since freshman year I have known that I want to continue my athletic career into college. I also plan on pushing myself just as hard academically as I do athletically, I am dead set on achieveing a 4.0 while taking advanced classes and I am so close to my goal. Aside from academics and athletics I am and will always be an outdoors person. I look froward to attending a college with a strong program or programs that center around my goal of becoming a game warden. I don't want the easy way out, I want to push limits and surpass goals all the while enjoying college and making myself a better person.
