Crystal said she was real happy to receive her scholarship and the opportunity to compete at the college level. Her scholarship at Lee's-McCrae is for four years. Her siblings include two younger brothers, David, a freshman, and Travis a sixth grader. David is also a track star for BHS and will be competing in state competition this weekend in Winter Park.
