Samantha Simank '15 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement
Dear Coaches: Hi! My name is Samantha Simank and it is my goal to run Cross Country and Track while attending an excellent college of 10,000 or less students. I have run Varsity CC and Track for all four years in high school. I also played Varsity Basketball through my junior year, until I decided I wanted to concentrate solely on running. I am currently the Captain of my Cross Country team, and I work closely with my coach, Mr. Donald Patterson, to promote team confidence and commitment. This year, I started a "big sister" program to welcome the new freshmen runners to the team. I have run injury-free for the last four years. I am competitive, like to work hard, and want to win for myself and for my team. Although my SAT score could be higher, please note that I am an Honors student with all AP courses and an A average. I get my academics done so I can run, and I like a challenge. I will be running a 5K in the Woodlands in two weeks and will post my time thereafter. I look forward to meeting you all!
