“Maggie is dedicated to the process and takes all the necessary steps to be successful. Her progression and improvement took her from a 5:13 1600 her freshman year to 5:01 sophomore year to 4:46 her junior year. That speaks volumes about her character and work ethic. She’s also an outstanding cross-country runner in the fall. You won’t find a more coachable athlete than Maggie.”
