This is it 
The final ride as a Panther.

These last four years tested me in ways nobody will ever fully understand. I’ve cried, doubted myself, been talked about, lied on, overlooked, and hated on — but through it all, I never stopped showing up. Even on the days I felt broken, I still found the strength to keep going, keep smiling, keep loving, and keep shining my light.

Winning state means so much more than a title to me. It’s proof that everything I went through didn’t break me. It built me.

Jackson County, thank you for giving me a place to grow, to fall, to rise, and to finally find my voice on and off the track. Every lesson, every teammate, every coach, every memory — I’ll carry it with me forever.

Although your girl will forever be a Panther, I BEYOND ready to start this new chapter in Tennessee as a Lady Volunteer . So as this chapter closes and a new one begins, I want to say thank you to everyone who truly believed in me and supported me, I’ll forever cherish you in my heart. Now enough with the sad stuff 😂 ya girl Solè Brooklyn Bailey is a 3X STATE CHAMPION. ❤️

My journey as a track and field athlete has been quite a roller coaster, I had many ups and a whole lot of downs, but never once have I thought about quitting. This sport has been my passion since I started, I remember my first ever meet running hurdles like it was yesterday, as soon as I crossed that finish line I knew this was what I was destined to do, and ever since then I’ve been dedicated and determined to reach every goal I set for myself. 

I thank my UT coaches ( uncle Ross, Uncle West, TiTi Hill, Uncle Frenchie, and papa G) for believing in me, and blessing me with the opportunity to continue to showcase my talents as a D1 collegiate athlete. 

Thank you to my parents! As I’m stepping into a new chapter of my life, I want you to know that I carry your strength, your sacrifices, and your lessons with me every step of the way. I’m grateful for every ride, every talk, every prayer, and every moment you believed in me when I was still learning to believe in myself.Everything I am becoming, and everything I’m working toward, is because of the foundation you gave me. You’ve supported me even when I doubted myself, pushed me when I needed it, loved me through every high and low, and I’ll forever be grateful for that.

So as I’m standing on the edge of this new chapter, I feel more ready than ever. Ready to compete. Ready to grow. Ready to work harder than I’ve ever worked and Ready to represent Tennessee with everything I’ve got.

This isn’t just a commitment. It’s a dream unfolding. A journey beginning. A moment I’ll remember for the rest of my life.

So thank you to everyone who helped me through this journey, I’ll never forget it. 

I’m Truly, deeply excited—for what’s ahead, for who I’ll become, and for the chance to make everyone who believed in me proud.

Your girl, Solè Brooklyn Bailey… is officially a Lady Vol 🧡🧡🧡
