Athlete of the Month: Isabella Bzowski

Junior Isabella Bzowski started running track and field during her freshman year, and by the end of the season had already made the varsity team. She has been dedicated ever since, and is traveling to Australia this summer to compete.

“I’m very excited to be running this summer in Australia. I feel very honored that I will be able to represent,” said Bzowski.

Bzowski runs the 100 meter hurdles, 300 meter hurdles, and recently the 4×400 meter relay.

“One thing I love about track is that it is an individual sport and you don’t have to rely on anyone. So when you win your race, you know that it was just you and yourself alone,” she said.

This season, Bzowski achieved 17.4 seconds in the 100 meter hurdles and 48.7 seconds in the 300 meter hurdles. She also reached her fastest split time in the 4×400 meter with 61 seconds.

Her passion for running has continued to grow throughout her years in track and she is one of the top short distance runners on the team. Bzowski hopes to continue to run after high school.
