As a cross country teammate was giving all she had, pushing for her personal record, Alyssa Wombles slowed and grabbed her hand and helped her achieve her goal. In that moment Alyssa was not worrying about sacrificing her own personal record, she was helping a teammate.
The TRUEST of Character.
Alyssa we are proud of you!!
