That 'Hawk Is...
Senior Hope Alexander!
Congrats to Miami alum Kristen Mathews for being the first person to submit the correct answer, again! Mathews and fellow alum Alexis Lape now are dead-even in the race to become the "Best RedHawk Fan".
In a recent interview, here's what Hope had to say:
MUTF: How'd you decide on Miami?
HA: I chose Miami because I used to skate, and Miami has a really good skating team. But, after I decided to attend Miami, I had a really good outdoor track season my senior year in high school, and I decided I would rather run track.
MUTF: What advice would you have for someone who is considering becoming a part of the Miami Track & Field family?
HA: We are not only an increasingly-talented team, but we are also all invested in each others success. You'll have a hard time finding a team as close as we are!
MUTF: What's your best memory- so far- of your time at Miami?
HA: I have so many...but... one of the most embarrassing/fun moments for me was doing the "Napoleon Dynamite" dance with Ruthie, Magda, and Katie during our freshman year!
MUTF: As a Miami student-athlete, we know that you are very busy with your academic and athletic endeavors...what do you do in your free time?
HA: Outside of school and track, I like to bake, but I'm not very good at it. I also love travelling and playing with my dog.
Be sure to tune in next Thursday, to see if you can "Name That 'Hawk..."!

That 'Hawk is...
Senior Katie Lenahan!
Congrats to Miami alum Kristen Mathews for being the first person to submit the correct answer! She currently sits in 2nd place (behind fellow alum Alexis Lape) in the race to become the "Best RedHawk Fan".
In a recent interview, here's what Katie had to say:
MUTF: How'd you decide on Miami?
KL: I chose Miami because it was close to home, the academics were challenging, and I felt comfortable on the beautiful campus. I also felt Miami would help me improve as a runner.
MUTF: What advice would you have for someone who is considering becoming a part of the Miami Track & Field family?
KL: Miami is a great institution to attend because you get a quality education, while also being part of a team who is dedicated to being the best. Plus, the campus is beautiful and the people are lovely! I can't imagine being anywhere else!
MUTF: What's your best memory- so far- of your time at Miami?
KL: I can't pick just one memory! The back-to-back MAC championships, of course, were quite enjoyable...but, I also have loved the little moments the most...going on bus rides, singing in the cold tank, and staying to talk for an hour after dinner- just to put off homework!
MUTF: As a Miami student-athlete, we know that you are very busy with your academic and athletic endeavors...what do you do in your free time?
KL: When I am not in class- or I'm not running- I love to take naps and play solitaire. I'm addicted to both!!!

Senior Amanda Mirochna!
Congrats to Miami alum Alexis Lape for being the first person to submit the correct answer...again! She is quickly establishing herself as the "Best RedHawk Fan".
In a recent interview, here's what Amanda had to say:
MUTF: How'd you decide on Miami?
AM: When I started searching for schools, I came across Miami...I was blown away by how beautiful it was! Then, when I visited, I quickly saw that everything suited me perfectly...especially the size of the campus...not too big, not too small. Plus, everyone I met on my visit was friendly and helpful. I could tell that Miami was going to help prepare me for the rest of my life.
MUTF: What advice would you have for someone who is considering becoming a part of the Miami Track & Field family?
AM: There are so many advantages...I'll just name a few, though!
1) Our program is awesome...we take training very seriously, BUT, we also have lots of fun...it's like having another family.
2) Our Coaches. They are extremely personable (Coach Towne is my favorite!) They have a tremendous amount of knowledge...which is why their athletes always improve.
3) Our campus...its beautiful! It is what you would imagine a college campus would look like!
MUTF: What's your best memory- so far- of your time at Miami?
AM: Winning the 2009 MAC Cross Country Championships...no one but us thought we could "repeat" our 2008 Championship- but we did! Also, traveling to big meets, like the Penn Relays...it gives us a chance to bond as a team during the bus rides, plane rides, etc.- and we get to go toe-to-toe with the "best" in the country!
MUTF: As a Miami student-athlete, we know that you are very busy with your academic and athletic endeavors...what do you do in your free time?
AM: I enjoy a good book...I like to take bike rides...I like to grill...and I LOVE to take naps!!!
