Both the New York Post and Sports Illustrated made hay about Team USA Women’s High Jump competitor, Rachel Glenn, and her decision to leave the University of South Carolina for the Razorbacks of Arkansas for non-athletic reasons. She simply liked the Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) accommodations at Arkansas better. (Photo: Courtesy Rachel Glenn via Instagram)

Rachel Glenn is competing in the Women’s High Jump
Qualification-Group A
Today (Friday, August 2, 2024) at 2:15 AM
(This event will occur prior to publication of this article. Should she qualify, look for her in the Women’s High Jump Finals on August 4 at 11:55 AM.)
This is one student athlete who stepped into her role as a model, and wanted to take full advantage of the opportunities college athletics had to offer. See for yourself on Rachel’s Instagram page (@rxchelglenn_).
Her courage on and off the track is why we are rooting for Rachel Glenn in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.
