The 6-foot, 145-pound senior distance talent broke the tape at the NCHSAA 4A State Championships to win the individual title with a time of 15:31.62—the fastest all-class clocking of the public school state postseason—leading the Spartans to a first-place finish as a team. Soule also finished fourth at the Great American XC Festival Race of Champions, clocking a personal-best time of 15:14.90. A HighSchoolOT.com First Team All-State and NCMileSplit First Team All-State selection, he finished fifth at the adidas XC Challenge. With Soule anchoring the Spartans’ efforts, Mount Tabor won the team title at both GAXC and adidas XC.
Soule has maintained a 4.54 weighted GPA in the classroom. He has signed a National Letter of Intent to run on scholarship at the University of North Carolina this fall.
A member of the National Honor Society and the Mu Alpha Theta national mathematics honor society, Soule has volunteered locally on behalf of Ronald McDonald House Charities and for the state Division of Social Services foster child program. A former student council representative at Mount Tabor and a participant in Young Life Christian ministry, he has also donated his time on behalf of the Special Olympics.
