Photo by Angela Foster.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Being a well-balanced student is not an easy feat, and as a student-athlete with a 4.0 GPA, Emmy Davis knows this all too well.<\/p>\n<p>Her hard work as an undergraduate student is coming to an end on Saturday, Dec. 16, when she graduates summa cum laude from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga with a degree in finance.<\/p>\n<p>As a high school student at Baylor School in Chattanooga, Davis\u2019 athletic talent caught the eye of Andy Meyer, UTC\u2019s cross country and track and field head coach, who recruited her onto the team.<\/p>\n<p>Her life as a college student began in August 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic was still in full swing.<\/p>\n<p>Although Davis got a taste of college campus life at Baylor, a private boarding and day school, she felt intimidated by UTC\u2019s size.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought the hardest part would be the size of UTC. It\u2019s so much bigger than Baylor,\u201d Davis said. \u201cWhen I transferred in the middle of COVID, there really weren\u2019t that many people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She said that cross country and track provided her with a community she may have otherwise lost without being involved in a sports team.<\/p>\n<p>Davis never really got a break from athletics while school was in session. She participated in cross country in the fall, which consisted of 5-kilometer runs\u2014roughly 3.1 miles&#8211;across rough or open terrain. In the spring, she participated in indoor and outdoor track events, primarily running 800-meter and 400-meter relays.<\/p>\n<p>Davis said it took a lot of grit and determination to keep up with the pressures of being an athlete and a scholar.<\/p>\n<p>She said managing it \u201clooked like a lot of time management and organization, working smarter and learning to work more efficiently.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing a part of a team is a really big commitment,\u201d she said. \u201cAdjusting class schedules around it is really how I had to adjust my whole college experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite multiple injuries and the stress of being a full-time student, Davis persisted through school and sports while accumulating several awards along the way.<\/p>\n<p>She was on the all-Southern Conference team for three years in indoor track, meaning she placed in the top eight in her events. She was also awarded the SoCon commissioner\u2019s medal for her grades the past six semesters.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Bento Lobo, UTC department head of finance, described Davis as an outstanding student-athlete and said she is always engaged in the classroom.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a pleasure to have a student like Emmy in my class. She seems destined to make a big impact in her life,\u201d said Lobo.<\/p>\n<p>Meyer said when UTC recruited Davis, he recognized that she was not only a great runner but also a great person.<\/p>\n<p>He said Davis never complained, even when she had to overcome injuries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter one injury, let alone a couple, a lot of kids just hang it up. Not Emmy. She keeps trying,\u201d Meyer said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s a great person, a great representative of our team, the University and the city of Chattanooga. We\u2019re going to miss her, that\u2019s for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Davis thanked her coaches, trainers and teachers for supporting her, especially when school was more challenging.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ve been a huge support,\u201d she said, \u201cand my family and friends constantly supported me, encouraged me and told me it\u2019s OK if it\u2019s not perfect.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>Learn More<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.utc.edu\/enrollment-management-and-student-affairs\/admissions\/visit\">Visit UTC<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.utc.edu\/gary-w-rollins-college-of-business\/departments\/finance-and-economics\/finance\">UTC Finance <\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gomocs.com\/sports\/cross-country\/roster\/emmy-davis\/9904\">Emmy Davis: GoMocs.com bio<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gomocs.com\/sports\/cross-country\">UTC Cross Country and Track and Field<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.utc.edu\/apply\">How to apply<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_55727\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" data-attachment-id=\"55727\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2023\/12\/graduating-senior-emmy-davis-shares-how-she-balances-life-as-athlete-and-finance-major\/davis_cover_220226\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/12\/davis_cover_220226.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1280,720\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"davis_cover_220226\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/12\/davis_cover_220226-1024x576.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-55727 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/12\/davis_cover_220226.jpg\" alt=\"Emmy Davis was on the all-Southern Conference team for three years in indoor track (photo credit: GoMocs.com).\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\"style=\"max-width: 100%;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/12\/davis_cover_220226.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/12\/davis_cover_220226-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/12\/davis_cover_220226-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/12\/davis_cover_220226-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/12\/davis_cover_220226-580x326.jpg 580w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/12\/davis_cover_220226-610x343.jpg 610w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/12\/davis_cover_220226-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Emmy Davis was on the all-Southern Conference team for three years in indoor track (photo credit: GoMocs.com).<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Being a well-balanced student is not an easy feat, and as a student-athlete with a 4.0 GPA, Emmy Davis knows this all too well.
