What has been your most memorable experience on Calvin's track team?
"My most memorable experience with the team has been my three years with the mile relay teams. Even though the people have changed over the years, we always pull together and achieve the goals we set for ourselves."
Why did you decide to attend Calvin College?
"I came to Calvin because it's a great school with a great track program. When I got here I realized there is plenty more Calvin College can offer. Calvin is the perfect place to develop yourself as a student, athlete and Christian. I have been able to train with the best coaches and made some of the best friends I will ever encounter."
