Some of the schools that I am considering after I graduate this year are Columbia, Stanford, USC, and Penn State. I hope to major in Kinesiology. I hope to run 2:06 in the 800 and win State this June. I hope to run 52.9-53.3 for the 400 during the season.
"I started running in the third grade, following in the foot steps of my father, James Sanford, who was a great high school and college sprinter. I gave up basketball this year to concentrate on track. It was taking a while to make the adjustment from the basketball court to the track and runway, so I decided to work on track my senior year. I am goint to attend USC next year. I have a 3.6 GPA, and I would like to jump 21-0 (LJ) and a National Record in the Triple Jump." (ed note) - The record is 44-00.25 by Ychlindria Spears of Texas from 2001). Sanford jumped 43-04.5 in the World Youth Championships(under 18) summer before last, but was not able to top that mark last prep season.
