This track season marked the powerful comeback of my junior year. A battle defined by determination, grit, and unwavering dedication. After missing last season due to injury, I came back with something to prove, and every obstacle only made me stronger. The season started off rough, full of setbacks and challenges that pushed my resilience to its limits. But I stayed committed to the process pushing forward and never once giving in to doubt. All that effort paid off when I stood on the podium: 3rd in the 100-meter hurdles, 8th in the 4x100, and a 3A State Champion with my team. That moment made every hardship, every ounce of pain and sacrifice, completely worth it. This wasn’t just about a medal; it was about proving to myself that I could rise again, stronger than before. I’m forever grateful to my coaches, teammates, community, and family. Your belief in me gave me the strength to conquer every hurdle, both on and off the track. This season was more than a comeback. 🖤 One last ride…

Track and Field. A sport that not only has led me to the highest of highs but also the lowest of lows. A sport that has taught me more life lessons than any classroom could. A sport that has brought me the closest friendships and more opportunities than I could ever ask for. 

Being a part of this team was nothing short of a dream come true. We faced challenges and struggles but always made time to rejoice and celebrate our victories. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to win a state title than the girls I was standing with. I love these people with every part of my heart!

If you would have told 12 year old Tatum what she was going to accomplish in high school, she would have looked at you like you were crazy. Bittersweet is the word I have used to describe this weekend. Because while I didn’t necessarily end up throwing the marks I had hoped to, I was still proud of how I performed. I am so eternally grateful for all that God has allowed me to do. 

Thank you, dad, for coaching me. Thank you for being there for me when I was deeply struggling, but for also being there in my successes. Thank you for pushing me when I didn’t want to be pushed and dedicating so much time to a sport we both so deeply care about. I truly wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for your guidance and selflessness. 

To the Beloit community: I hope you accept my deepest gratitude and true thankfulness. Your support throughout my time as a Trojan has never been overlooked. I hope that I have made you proud. 

Thank you Beloit Track and Field. Thank you for every opportunity, every track meet, every bus ride, and every victory. To be a part of such a prestigious program has been nothing but life changing and glorious. 

While I will miss competing in a Trojan uniform, I will not have to change my colors! I am so extremely excited to compete as a cowgirl and I can’t wait to see where Oklahoma State leads me in the next few years!

A perfect weekend full of hugs, smiles, and celebrations! 

Thank you, Beloit High, for everything. 

Thank you Jesus.
