This Person… Completed their first year Was a constant presence at practice Competed in high jump, hurdles, and relays Tim Lilly Was the only person to declare to me that “I’m a sprinter!” when asked to run a longer distance Was constant and disciplined starter on relays DeAsha Williams

This Person… Was one of our more active bloggers Competed in relays, hurdles, and middle distance races Is never short for words Megan Godbey Completed their second year Never backed down from challenges Competed in long jump, sprints, and relays Alex Tiernan

This Person… Completed a second year of track and is a legacy Declared a disdain for hurdles early in the season then demonstrated superior form later Was willing to compete in almost any event asked Desiree Maynard Completed a first year of track Never shied away from any challenge hurdles, distance, throwing Suffered a mid-season setback due to a missed practice, yet did not let it deter Is All-MVC Shot Put Angel Davis

This Person… Knows that academics comes before athletics Likes to play in the sand Willing to do what is necessary to help the team Dallais Williams Very easily could have chosen not to join the team, but chose to join the team belatedly Competed in shot and relays Terry Simpson

This Person… Was the consummate team player in practice and at meets Sometimes suffered from self-doubt, yet never gave up Was one of our primary photographers and videographers Erica Pugh Completed their first season of track with many more to go and is a legacy Was a steadying force on the relays and sprints Is not afraid to speak up for himself in an appropriate manner Von Brown

This Person… Completed their first season Was a competitor on the track in hurdles and relays Is way-emotional At leagues placed 6 th in the 200m Hurdles and 5 th in the 100 Hurdles Tailor Smith Completed their first season Likes to play in sand, do relays, and run really fast for about 75 seconds Jacob Cromer

This Person… Completed their second season Missed one meet this year Contributed to the team’s success in a variety of ways: hurdles, relays, and distances Finished 4 th place in 110m Hurdles at leagues Andrew Robinson Completed their second year Never quite got her hands down in her running form Competed at relays, 400s, and hurdles (sometimes tragically) TerraceUniq Johnson

This Person… Completed their first season and is a legacy Is willing to do whatever is necessary for the team to be successful Ran relays and middle distances Solomon Roundtree Completed their first season Never met an event they did not want to conquer Performed a victory lap Excelled at both discus and shot put placing 5 th in both at leagues Ashley King

This Person… Completed their first season, and is a legacy Doesn’t like to run the mile Found ways to contribute in the sprinting events Mariam Hamady Is probably our most natural runner, yet happens upon convenient knee injuries Excelled at the mile, 800, and 4x400 relay Placed 2 nd in the Mile and 4 th in the 800m at leagues Margaret Beauvais

This Person… Is probably our most decorated runner on one of our teams Completed in relays, hurdles, and middle distances Logan Grimsley Is probably our most decorated runner on our other team Competed in sprints and relays Is All-MVC 200m Dash Kennefa Maxberry
