From the coaching staff:
"Mike is a true student-athlete. He uses hard work and determination to combine academic success, where he maintains a 4.0 in aeronautical engineering, with a passion for track & field. He has always been a top sprints performer and workout leader. Mike is always running from academic meetings and projects, but is always engaged in track & field discussions and debates. He is the last to leave a sprints practice or starting block session." - March 2020
What others say:
"Mike is a great role model and an excellent teammate. He always makes time to help others and support his teammates. He gives valuable feedback and is always respectful. Throughout the years I've spent competing alongside him, I've had the pleasure of getting to know him on and off the track and he is just an overall amazing person. Truly had a massive impact on me." - April 2020
