The goal of every senior athlete is to end his college career with a bang. Daniel Nunn is doing just that. The senior distance runner garnered All-American honors last Friday by placing 13th in the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships 5K final. It is the first time he has been named an All-American for indoor track and field.
“Being named an All-American has been a personal goal of mine since I came to Georgetown,” Nunn said. “It is a huge honor and accomplishment to be named one.”
Despite the fact that Nunn has already obtained All-American status, he is doing all that he can to accomplish bigger things this outdoor season.
“A major change I made my senior season was approaching every practice, workout, and race with a positive mental attitude. That has changed my outlook on running and my ability to perform at a high level,” Nunn said.
Hopefully his passion and love for the sport will remain strong as he attempts to qualify for the NCAA Outdoor Championships in the 10K. If he succeeds, it will be a fitting end to an impressive Georgetown running career.
Nunn and the rest of the Hoyas kick off the outdoor season on March 27 at both the Stanford Invitational and the Raleigh Relays.
