It is more than just a run on the trail at Jackson State University for Stherline Silencieux.<\/p>\n

Well known for skills as a runner on JSU\u2019s cross-country team, Silencieux is also on the track and field team and a member of Lambda Sigma Honor Society.<\/p>\n

With dreams of becoming a premier wedding planner, Silencieux plans to intern at Tara Gu\u00e9rard Soir\u00e9e after obtaining her bachelor\u2019s degree in business management from JSU.<\/p>\n

Tara Gu\u00e9rard Soir\u00e9e is a full-service event planning and design company headquartered in historic Charleston, S. C.,<\/p>\n

with an additional office in<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

New York City.<\/p>\n

The top women\u2019s cross-country runner chose JSU because it was an opportunity to explore a new location since she never had the chance to leave New Jersey before coming to college.<\/p>\n

Silencieux stated that she wanted new scenery, a new location and a new place to call her home away from home.<\/p>\n

One of the unique things about Silencieux\u00a0 that many JSU students may notice if they see her on campus is that she likes to be different from everyone else.\u00a0 She is known for wearing mismatched socks during competition and occasionally on a regular dress down day.<\/p>\n

Silencieux had a minor setback during her freshman year at JSU because she stated, she wasn\u2019t pushing herself as much as she could due to an injury during cross-country in 2014. She has high expectations and is determined that it will not hold her back from getting personal records for this season.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith every practice and every meet, I feel stronger than I felt the previous day. Don\u2019t get me wrong, I do get my sluggish days, but being pushed by my coach and teammates really helps me push myself to the next level. I just run and if I feel like I push that last mile or 200 meters, then I just do it,\u201d said Silencieux.<\/p>\n

Silencieux has numerous people supporting her to help push her pass her limits, such as, family, friends, and even people that have seen her run and thinks she can do better. She really enjoys when other coaches from other schools encounter her to help become a better athlete.<\/p>\n

Silencieux feels that playing sports helps prepare you for any profession and life in general. Cross-country and track and field has helped to show her discipline, teamwork, and time management.<\/p>\n

Silencieux expects her times to drop before the SWAC championship on Oct. 24 because she is pacing herself and her times are only dropping with more hard work.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have high hopes in the cross-country team on ending our season and onwards,\u201d said Silencieux.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
