Twice weekly we will highlight spring sport senior athletes on their careers at Saint Mary's.
Two of the most personable Gaels were in the middle of their senior seasons when it was halted due to the NCAA and Saint Mary's responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite not being able to resume their seasons, both Katie Watson and Jayman Peterson both reflected on successful careers as Gaels, and both spoke glowingly about how 2020 was unfolding on the track.
Watson was a standout three-sport athlete at Catalina Foothills High School in Tuscon, Arizona, where she ran cross country, track, and also was a member of the state-championship-winning tennis team.
