Taylor Walker is a sophomore and is a part of the Jefferson-Morgan track team.

Taylor has played one other year prior to this year. When asked what her inspiration for participating in track was, she responded with “Getting myself in shape.” Taylor has gotten first in the high jump at one of their meets. Instead of Carmichaels being the school’s biggest competition for track it’s Wash High. This is what Taylor looks forward to in the season.

Taylor does not have anyone else in her family that participated in Track, but she does like being a part of it. Taylor does not prepare in the off season but does push herself so she doesn’t give up. She does not have anyone she looks up to professionally for track yet, though. Taylor would tell underclassmen that are interested in track to never give up and always push yourself.

When asked what she is looking forward to this season, she said “Getting better at jumping higher and getting a faster 100 time.” To accomplish this, Taylor is going to have to work hard, but we know she’s more than capable of doing so. Taylor said her biggest fan would have to be her mom because of how much support she gives her. Since there are not ‘home meets’ for track there are only away ones.

Good luck to Taylor in the upcoming season!
