Track and Field

I am a Shot-put and Discus thrower on the track and field team at Grimsley. I enjoy being a thrower for both shot-put and discus but shot-put is my favorite. I have worked during the off season with weigh training and attended throwing camp and one day throwing sessions. Shot-put and discus throwing is a mental challenge and you cannot over think or take yourself out of your game. 



My last year of track season of my career is off to a slow start. The first three events of this track season have been cancelled because of inclement weather. I didn’t think we were going to get this track season started but luckily we had a beautiful day and competed in the Southeast Invitational Track meet.  It was a very good day for me since I was able to throw my personal best in discus with 111 feet and received a bronze medal for 3rd place. I finished first place with a gold medal with my personal best of 37 feet 10 inches in shot put.
