Katie will not be signing to play basketball for Victory. She is actually signing a letter of intent to run cross country. While at Red Boiling Springs High School, Katie ran cross country and track with Macon County High School. Some of her career standings with the track team include 2011 Cross Country Regional Championships Division 1 Class A-AA 7th place, 2012 Cross Country State Championship 8th place, 2012 Cross Country Regional Championships 5A-AA 5th place, and 2012 Track 3200-m Relay State Championship Division 1 Class A-AA 5th place.
