Winning relay golds has taught Round Rock's Mason Page the importance of teamwork

All about Mason: Lots of interests outside of track

Tell something about you that most people don't know.

I enjoy watching old superhero cartoons in the background while working.

If you could be any superhero, who would you be?

I would be Batman. Batman's a regular guy that's able to compete with other superheroes because of his hard work.

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?

I'm not too interested in traveling, but seeing ancient cities like Rome would be interesting.

What do you like to do for fun when you're not playing sports?

I enjoy creating and using projects I've made, like riding on my electric longboard or playing on my homemade Game Boy.

Round Rockin' at the Texas Relays

What has been your favorite memory with Round Rock track?

I've had all kinds of great experiences with track, but my most recent and most exciting has been placing first in the (1,600-meter relay) at the Texas Relays. Going from third place all the way to first was a thrill.

Do you have any meet-day rituals?

My family makes fun of me about this a lot, but consistently before each meet, I'll have a bowl of chicken noodle soup. It helps with hydration and the warmth helps relax me.

What do you plan to do after you graduate?

I'm currently signed with Oklahoma State to continue my track and academic career. I'm excited to explore their engineering program and all that it offers.

Has track and field taught you any lessons that you use in daily life?

I've been on relays throughout my entire track career. It has definitely taught how each person must work hard individually for the team to succeed. Every step a previous leg makes can change the outcome of the race.

Dream dinner: Saving a seat for Prince

If you could have dinner with any four people in the history of the world, whom would you choose?

I would like to have dinner with Prince, Usain Bolt, Nikola Tesla and Socrates.

Why did you choose Prince?

I grew up listening to Prince because of my dad. I've always wanted to go to a concert, but I'll never be able to. Having the chance to talk to Prince and see his process as an artist would be eye-opening.
