Sheedy has been one of the most dominant runners since her freshman year and she and teammate Alyssa Tatum had recently broke records in the 1500 and 3000 during the 2017 season.

Her quest to join the ladies in competition for Miss Guam Earth as one of the youngest members didn’t phase her as she has grown accustom to big moments after reeling in numerous gold medals, including 1st 2nd place IIAAG track titles over the past two years.
