WHY LINFIELD? I chose Linfield because of the athletics program, the scholarships I was offered and the curriculum at Linfield.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD? Being a student-athlete means the world to me. If I were to go to another school, I would feel as if I didn’t belong there, that is how much I believe that Linfield is the best choice I could ask for.
WHAT MAKES YOU INTERESTING AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE? I am an extremely hard worker, If I have my mind set to do something, it will be done, there is no way around it. I can adapt to many different situations and I personally think that I am made for athletics because I can pick them up so easily
WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS THIS SEASON INDIVIDUALLY AS WELL AS COLLECTIVELY FOR YOUR TEAM? I hope to help out the track and field team, not only by preforming well, but as well as, becoming closer to my teammates and help them grow not only as players but as people too.
THE GREATEST PRINCIPLE OR LESSON THAT I'VE LEARNED WHILE COMPETING IN ATHLETICS AT LINFIELD HAS BEEN... Even if there are hardships or tall hurdles in your way of achieving success you can't just stand by and let the chance you have go away. You must push through and work though those hardships to grasp that chance, through this, not only will you succeed, but you will also finish the day as a stronger person.
