Hill is majoring in Mechanical Engineering and was inspired to run track by his father, who instilled in him a strong work ethic and a drive to excel. His most memorable moment in the sport came when he ran his first sub-50 at Texas Tech. Motivated by his faith, the excitement of watching the Olympics, and his determination to be great in all areas of life, he believes one of the biggest challenges for athletes today is pushing past the body’s limits.

Off the track, Hill enjoys drawing, weightlifting, and gaming. He loves steak, is a fan of Marvel movies, and looks forward to Christmas because it brings his large family together. Looking ahead, he hopes to build a stable future and pursue a career in aerospace. Hill chose Prairie View A&M because it allows him to compete and grow close to home.
