We would never be able to afford a $38,000-a-year education. I am doing something I love while getting a college education.

I was surprised myself about the long jump. I love competition and I saw another girl was getting close to my best so I just let it go. I am very happy. This was a great meet.

The fact she signed with UM helped her to see just how important track is to her and the fact that she can use what God's given her to go to the next level and perform. I am seeing her growth at the maturity level.
