THE HOME OF DAYTONA STATE ATHLETICS

Bio

Mott is no stranger to Wilson’s coaching.  Having run for DeLand High School her freshman and sophomore year, she thrived in her sophomore track season with Wilson providing some help with workouts.  Mott qualified for the Florida State track meet that spring and placed seventh in the 3200 meters with a time of 11:07.  She ran several road races under 20 minutes for 5k during her first two years of high school.  

After high school, and a break from running, Mott is in her second academic year at DSC.  She decided during the spring of 2019 to try her hand at cross country for the Falcons for this fall.  Wilson could not be happier to be working with Mott again, who as Wilson puts it, “is having fun running again.” 

Outlook for 2019 per Wilson: “Sara is in that place where she will just get stronger and more fit with every workout.  We’ve always had to be a little careful to avoid injuries, but I think this will be a fun season for her, and us.  Although her best season was spring of 2016, once you have run that fast, it’s always in there somewhere.” Wilson stated.
