Winamac Athletics- Home of the Warriors

Kadence Hoover is signing with Indiana University Kokomo to continue her academic and athletic career for their cross country and track and field programs What made you choose IUK? "When I was deciding on colleges where I wanted to continue being an athlete, I thought of multiple factors and a place that was still close to home was a priority" What is your favorite memory of playing sports while participating as a student-athlete at Winamac? "I would say going to Semi-State all 4 years but technically Regionals my last 2 because of the change in the tournament." Was playing a collegiate sport something that you always wanted to do? "Yes, because I enjoy being active and I hate when I feel lazy" Who were people along the way that helped you achieve this goal? "My parents and my brother. I would also say all of my teammates" What would you say to Winamac students who are on the fence about wanting to join cross country or track and field in high school? "Absolutely do it! It's more of a family rather than a team"
