The Athlete

Faith. Focus.
Fire.

Raised in Louisiana and raised on discipline, Makeriah runs the 100m and 200m for the Tigers. What started as backyard races with cousins became a full-ride to LSU, an SEC roster spot, and a promise to give every practice the same weight as game day.

Off the track she's studying Mechanical Engineering, mentoring youth athletes, and building a brand rooted in family, faith, and grind.
