Her goal is to continually improve on her personal best and put forth strong performances. The end goal is to make it to the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships and also achieve the Olympic qualifying distance that will put her on Grenada’s team for Paris 2024. The Olympic qualifying distance is 64.50 meters. Alves’s current personal best is 52.86. She needs to up her game, and she’s focused on achieving that. If all goes well, she hopes to continue representing Grenada through the 2028 Olympics. Right now, she’s working to incorporate new technical elements that St. John’s throwing coach, Lexia Robinson, has introduced.

“There are a lot of changes I’ve made; it will take a little while to adapt, but I feel like from the period now until leading up to NCAAs, I think I should be mentally and physically ready,” she added.
