Coach's Comment - Kathleen has really stepped it up over the last year. She faced a lot of pressure in the spring stepping into North's highly successful 4X100M relay and helped lead the team to their most successful year ever. She hides her competitive nature by always sporting a smile - but don't underestimate her inner drive. She works hard to get where she is and won't concede anything!
