Career
[edit]Middle and high school
[edit]Sisson started running in the seventh grade, and while still in middle school, she won a silver medal in the 3000 metres at the USATF National Junior Olympic Championships in 2005.[6] After transitioning to high school, Sisson won multiple state championships in track and cross country in Nebraska.[7] As a freshman in 2006 at Marian High School, she won the state cross country championship in the fall and the 3200m in the spring. She then transferred to Millard North High School for her sophomore year, where she continued her winning streak by reclaiming the state title in cross country and earning state titles in the 800m, 1600m, and 3200m.
In her last two years of high school, Sisson transferred to Parkway Central High School in Chesterfield, Missouri.[7] There, she added two state cross country titles to her record, along with state championships in the 1600m and 3200m.[8] In 2009, she achieved a third-place finish at the Footlocker National Championships. However, Sisson did not participate in her final high school track season, choosing instead to prepare for the 2010 IAAF World Cross Country Championships in Bydgoszcz, Poland.[8] Competing in the under-20 race at this event, she finished 18th.
Sisson's achievements in her early career also include several medals at the USATF U20 Outdoor Championships: a gold in the 5000m in 2007, a silver in the 3000m in 2009, and another gold in the 3000m in 2010.[9] Internationally, she secured a bronze in the 5000m at the 2007 Pan American Junior Athletics Championships.[10] At the 2010 World Junior Championships in Athletics, she placed 10th in the 3000m and 6th in the 5000m. Her 5000m time of 15:48.91 set a national record for U.S. high school girls.[4]
College
[edit]Sisson began competing for the University of Wisconsin–Madison in fall 2010. In her first season of cross county, she finished 14th at the 2010 NCAA Division I Cross Country Championships.[11] During the outdoor track season, Sisson ran 15:53.9 to finish 10th in the 5000m of the 2011 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships. She decided to transfer to Providence College in Rhode Island after her freshman year, explaining that her experience at Wisconsin was "not a good fit" and citing the opportunity to train under coach Ray Treacy.[12]
At Providence College, Sisson was a two-time NCAA champion, winning titles in the 5000m at both the indoor and outdoor NCAA Championships in 2015. She also set a collegiate indoor record for the women's 5000m with a time of 15:12.22 at the Big East Indoor Track & Field Championships on 28 February 2015.[5] In cross country, Sisson attained All-American honors at the 2012 and 2013 NCAA Division I Cross Country Championships, finishing 15th and 7th, respectively.
