What influence has your coach had on you with respect to your performance and overall life goals?
Where should I begin? First of all I dont know what I would do if God hadn't placed my coaches in my life. Coaches Damien Thomas, Desmond Pryce, Sampson Williams, and Duchane Thomas. Coach Duchane Thomas who we called " Lady Coach" is like our second mother. She meant business every single time we stepped on that track. There was no going through the motions with her. You have to give 100% when on the track at practice and of course at the meets as well. She always kept us in line on the track and off. We had to give our best but in the classrooms as well. Our education came first then track and field. She is more than a coach to me. She is a teacher, mentor, loves God and a person who loves and just cares for kids.

My college plans are to attend Florida Atlantic Universiy. I will be majoring in Business Administration and running track. Go Owls!
