How did you become interested in Track & Field? I started running track my 7th grade year at James Wood Middle School as a way to hang out with my friends after school.
 

What are your goals for this season? This season I'm hoping to become a better runner. By working harder and pushing my self beyond my limits I'm hoping to drop my 100 m hurdle into the mid 14's and continue to do well in the 300m hurdles. Hopefully, I can become a state champion my second year of hurdling.

What and/or who do you attribute to your success? My hurdle coach Howard Copley first introduced me to hurdles in high school and he continues to push me and allow me to strive for my best each and every practice, my parents Sarah and Wayne Springer helped to keep me focused and never allowed my to give up when the going got tough. Id always like to give credit to my friends for their continuing support. 

 Favorite quote? "Experimentation is the antidote to fear", spoken by my choir teacher Brian Kelly
