Aquinas College

Lexi Hurst
Kentwood, Michigan, native Lexi Hurst, a 2024 graduate of East Kentwood High School, enters her sophomore year at Aquinas pursuing a degree in Clinical Exercise Science. A decorated runner, Hurst was a six-time track state qualifier and earned All-Conference honors in 2024. She contributed to multiple championship teams, including conference, regional, and MITCA Team State titles between 2021 and 2024, while competing as a four-year track and three-year cross country varsity athlete. With five years of running experience, Hurst chose Aquinas for the people she would meet and the opportunities for growth on and off the track. She attributes her success to her faith, relying on God as her guide in all pursuits. Away from the course, she enjoys Black Cherry ice cream, watching Legally Blonde, and reflecting on her journey living in Tennessee, Washington, North Carolina, and Michigan.
