Erin Bousquet (Senior, Cross Country)
During Erin Bousquet’s freshman year at Leominster High School, she went to a club and activity fair and happened to stop at the table promoting the cross country team. Four years later, Bousquet is a mainstay on the team, recently posting the second best Blue Devil time of 27:28 in the team’s season opening meet at Algonquin.
Bousquet has lived in Leominster for five years. Before that, she lived in Tampa, FL and Westminster. Bousquet said she has enjoyed her time on the girls’ cross country team here at LHS.
“(What I like most) is being part of a team and running with friends,” Bousquet said. “The part I enjoy most is having such a small group of people that I have ran with in the past four years during every sport season.”
Bousquet also participates in indoor track in the winter and outdoor track in the summer.
Leominster cross country coach Danielle Lussier said Erin is a model student-athlete.
“I have had the pleasure of knowing Erin since eighth grade,” Lussier said. “She is a hard working student and athlete who always has a smile on her face. She steps up to any challenge that you put in front of her and we are lucky to have her on our team.”
Bousquet said she would like to continue running cross country in college, even if that’s just for a club program.
When she’s not running, Bousquet enjoys working and hanging out with friends.
At LHS, Bousquet enjoys math and science classes, including Physics and Environmental Science. She said her favorite teacher is Mr. Robichaud, “because I learned more about things actually useful to my future from being in his class for two years than any other class.”
