The 5-foot-6 junior distance talent broke the tape with a time of 18:08.30 in the 3-mile LHSAA 5A State Championship this past season, leading the Bearcats to second place as a team. Garrett also won the 5A Region 1 meet with a personal-best time of 17:27.31—the state’s fastest girls clocking in 2021—which ranks as the seventh-fastest girls 3-mile time in state history. A 2021 All-State selection, she was unbeaten at the 3-mile distance last fall and her winning time at the state meet marked the sixth-fastest high school time in course history at Northwestern University in Natchitoches.
Garrett has maintained a 3.22 GPA in the classroom. She will begin her senior year of high school this fall.
An accomplished artist, Garrett is a member of the Gifted Art Club and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes chapter at her school. An active participant in her Ruston Church of Christ parish community, she has donated her time to events celebrating the contributions of donors to the track and field program in addition to coaching elementary school runners.
