VYPE 411: Angel Nwodu

Angel Nwodu recently won the VYPE Houston Private School Female Track & Field Athlete of the Year Fan Poll! VYPE caught up with Nwodu for the 411 on the star from Fort Bend Christian Academy.

VYPE: How long have you been running track and how did you get your start?

Nwodu: I've been doing track since I was in the 5th grade. I started because a lot of my coaches for the others sports said I would be great at track.

VYPE: Who's your favorite athlete and why?

Nwodu: Currently Sha'Carri Richardson is my favorite athlete because watching her is so inspiring and entertaining. I would love to emulate her style of running.

VYPE: Go-to pregame meal? Routine?

Nwodu: My go-to pregame meal would probably be a fruit bowl and a granola bar.

VYPE: Off the field, what is your favorite thing to do?

Nwodu: Off the field, I love to paint.

VYPE: In all of your years of running track, what is the one memory you'll never forget?

Nwodu: My favorite memory was playing Uno with the FBCA girls team and my coach in our hotel room at State because it was very exhilarating and rowdy.
