Did you know that the field builds physical strength, and the stage builds emotional strength?
Students deserve access to both.
Meet Myles: Myles excels in Track & Field—particularly discus and shot put—while performing in Band (Trumpet). Throwing events require strength, technique, and consistent repetition, while trumpet performance demands breath control, precision, and confidence. Both develop determination, focus, and poise under pressure. #WeAreWorcester #YouCanDoBoth
