As a sophomore, Estep helped the 4x400-meter relay claim the first women’s relay league title since 1985 and qualified for the NCAA Championships.

A native of Virginia, Estep also competed on the cross country team for three years. She placed sixth on the team as a freshman in 2008 at both the league and regional championships.

Estep is currently pursuing a letter of completion in sport psychology.
