UTEP runner chooses school over NCAA Championships

Tough decision for this woman. UTEP Pharmacy School wouldn’t give permission to miss four days of class, so she was given the choice to skip the NCAA Championships and attend her pharmacy training class, or run in the National Championship and withdraw from class.

Tough decision but she made the right decision. Her academic career is significantly more important. I just hope she doesn’t live with this choice with regret.

Respect. Rather take the course in the Wintermester she is going home to Keyna to see her family for the first time since 2014. Respect.
