The Waldron track program continues to turn out track stars as yet another athlete is moving on to college-level competition. Lady Track Bulldog, Constance Richmond, signed her letter of intent on Thursday, May 13, to continue running as a Lady Buck for Rich Mountain. Richmond’s passion for track started in the 8th-Grade with the help of her cousin who was also a runner and encouraged her to join. “I chose Rich Mountain because it was close to home and affordable. While I’m there, I’m hoping to get more successful in not only track but in everything I do,” expressed Richmond.
Constance also participates in Cross County and currently holds a Track PR of 22:05 in the 3 mile. “I’m so proud of Constance,” Waldron Girl’s Track Coach, Angie Bailey said. “She gives nothing but her best and it showed as she medaled at every meet she ran! She never had a negative thing to say and was a dream to coach.” Constance, who will be attending Rich Mountain with fellow Lady Bulldog, Star Spence, concluded “I love the fact of moving on with Star because I not only know someone else but I’m close to her as well. I also think it’s good to have someone you know to run beside you during practice so that you don’t feel weird so I love that I will have her beside me!”
Constance, it has been an honor to follow you for the last four years. These signing days are definitely the highlight of my job. We at Resident Press are truly proud of you and can not wait to see what the rest of your journey has to offer!
