Why did you start participating in Track and Field?

There is a good team atmosphere and you have your own individual thing as well.

Listening to music.

Are you planning on continuing to compete in Track and Field after graduation?
I’m not planning on it, but I would if I were good enough. I would want go to the Olympics if possible.

What do you think is the key to your success as a student athlete?
Time management.

All conference: heptathlon, decathlon 2011 (3rd and 2nd respectively).  USTFCCCA all-academic 2011 (must have a cumulative GPA above 3.3 and either qualify for nationals or be ranked in the top 48 in the nation in your event)  Two years varsity letter. I also just broke the school record in the heptathlon last week, but that probably won't stand for the rest of the season since the other multi and I will hopefully be exceeding that mark later.
