Why Yale: "Yale was the only Division I school where the coach told me that they encourage their athletes to be active members of the school community. When I went on my official visit, I could sense that the athletes embraced this culture and had the mindset that track was enhancing their college experience rather than taking away from it. I truly felt at home.”
