From the sidelines:

Maya has proven to be a runner to be reckoned with not only in Federal Way but, throughout the State, as well. Maya’s consistent summer training recently paid off as she ran the 3rd fastest 5K in Federal Way High School history at the Hole in the Wall Invite. Last week, Maya became Federal Way’s first freshman to win the individual All City championship and lead the way for the girls’ team securing their first ever All City Championship. Whether it’s on the course or in the classroom, Maya exemplifies what it means to be a Competitor. Go Maya!
