It's easy to forget in the shuffle of everything going on in the world today that there are senior athletes in New Mexico that not only will miss out on their last seasons but will also will not be able to impress collegiate coaches that may not be aware of their potential. Athletes that were perhaps on the edge of recruiters scope and were planning on having a breakout season filled with huge personal bests and State Championship accolades under their belt. The purpose of this list will be to shed exposure to athletes that have potential and an interest in competing at the next level.
New Mexico Coaches and Parents if you too have an athlete that you feel has potential and a desire to compete collegiality and should be on this list you can email Jaren Brooks at jaren.nmmilesplit@gmail.com.
