Kayla Overholt (Grade 10)
At last year's GHAC Championships, Notre Dame's Kayla Overholt placed 8th among midget girls and narrowly missed qualifying for OFSAA. Heading into the 2017 season, she committed herself to training at a higher level with the goal of making the provincial championships. Kayla finished 4th overall in the junior division at this year's GHAC Championships, qualifying her for OFSAA in Petawawa, Ontario. There, she came very close to achieving her desired goal and placed 3rd among GHAC runners. Hard work pays off and Kayla Overholt is a testament to this. - Coach Sneyd Sport: Notre Dame Cross Country How long have you participated?
