Lehman College Athletics

When Paulette finished her freshman year at Lehman, she was already one of the greatest track athletes in the college’s history. Incredibly, that was only the start of her outstanding athletic career.

Paulette went on to win both the Lehman College Indoor and Outdoor Track and Field Most Valuable Runner award and the Female Athlete of the Year award in each of her four years at Lehman, but her true greatness can only be measured on a national scale. She also won the City University of New York Athletic Conference long-jump championship twice and the hurdle championship eight times.

A freshman qualifier in the NCAA, 55m and 100m hurdles, Paulette ascended to All-American in her sophomore year, finishing sixth in the 55m and eight in the 100m hurdles. In her junior year, she was an NCAA champion in both the 55m and 100m hurdles. As a senior, she became the national champion in the 100m, as well a the runner-up in the indoor long jump and 55m hurdles, and was named the NCAA Regional and National Female Athlete of the Year. A champion in every sense of the word, Paulette has raised the bar for all track and field athletes at Lehman.
