BreAna Tillemans of Campus had a never-ending successful track season this year. Committed to Missouri State University to run track next fall, Tillemans is thankful for her exciting senior year.
“The season was very rewarding and everything I could have hoped for in my senior year,” Tillemans said. “My four by four team and I broke our school record four times with the ultimate time being just over four minutes, and then I was also involved in breaking the four by one record running a 49. The season was great and I wouldn’t have had it any other way.”
Going into the spring season, Tillemans had big goals for herself and her team, and she was able to cross every goal off the to-do list.
“At the beginning of the season I wanted to break 56 in the 400 and drop my 200 time, and both of those goals were accomplished,” Tillemans said.
With the season now wrapped up, Tillemans favorite memories include a mix of accomplishing goals and having fun with her teammates.
“My favorite memory from the season is definitely running a 55 for the first time,” Tillemans said. “I was so excited and relieved that I was able to do so. Another good team memory was running a four minute and four second race with my four by four team and being back-to-back regional champs.”
Track season won’t be over for Tillemans, as she plans to continue her athletics and academics this fall.
“After high school I will be attending Missouri State University on a track scholarship and I plan on studying accounting or dentistry,” Tillemans said.
