Student-Athlete Profile

"For the past three years, running on my high school’s varsity cross-country and track teams has taught me the values of teamwork, self-confidence, and respect. Respect is one of the key components of success. I respect my teammates. I support them after bad races and praise them after good ones. I’ve learned to encourage my teammates differently - some need a confidence boost while others prefer a more competitive pep talk. I’ve also learned to respect myself. I’ve learned that not every day is going to be good; I won’t always feel confident before a race; and, despite having raced for three
years, I might still get pre-race butterflies. But, no matter how I’m feeling in the moment, I always gather my teammates before a race and ...congratulate them for pushing themselves and kicking together to the finish line.” -Kelsey
