Kayla Frost of Campus High School has always been surrounded by sports, and her competitive nature and drive to succeed has always come easy. From one sport to another, Frost has given it her all, including her track and field career.
“I started track in seventh grade,” Frost said. “I started doing club track my sophomore year with Shocker Track Club. I started doing track because I wanted to hang out with my friends and try something new. I have always been involved in sports, from things like rec soccer to competitive cheerleading. In my eighth grade year, I broke my school record for high jump, which was when I knew I wanted to take track seriously.”
With her athletic ability and a huge support system behind her, Frost’s favorite memory was excitedly able to be shared with her teammates.
“The most memorable moment in my track and field career is when I broke my school triple jump record in the first meet of my sophomore year,” Frost said. “This was my first time jumping outdoors, as I had just learned to triple jump a couple of months ago indoors. The reason why this moment meant so much to me is that the girls I looked up to most were there experiencing it with me. Hearing them tell me I broke the record is a moment I will never forget.”
