Cross-Country/Track and Field

Academic All-American (at LSSU)

Hillsdale’s challenging curriculum and amazing athletic program all inspired me to transfer to this college from Lake Superior State University. I knew I would get an excellent education that would adequately prepare me for my career. I love the small campus atmosphere and the values that are held at Hillsdale which really reflect my own beliefs. As an athlete, I knew Coach Sarah would really help me improve in my running.

The continual support and drive of my teammates is amazing, and I love being on such a positive team. As an athlete, a lot is expected, athletically and academically, but I love the challenge and the coaching staff here is so helpful. They’re a lot of fun!

Dedication, persistence and a positive attitude! It is important to stay positive when things look down and to never give up when life gets hard; it will only make you stronger by giving it your all and striving to be the best in everything that you do.

When I transferred here, it was a whole new environment, but the team has been so welcoming and wonderful. I loved getting to know everyone; especially Coach Sarah who I know will really help take me where I want to go as a runner. I am very excited to see how fast I can get with her coaching!
