Personal: Son of Marc and Cynthia Donnhauser. Majoring in graphic design. Enjoys drawing, running, making stop-motion videos, playing video games, watching moves and collecting. Lists near the end of his race during the 2022 CCCAA Championships when he sprinted for about 200 meters, passing several runners while motivating his teammates behind him to chase him, closing the gap between the team’s No. 1 runner and bringing two other teammates with him as most exciting experience in sports. Notes he has been running in general for about eight years.
