Courtney Corrin soared last month to a national-best long-jump mark for high school girls. She also is a perennial choice for national age-group soccer teams.
Her fleet and nimble feet might one day carry her to the Olympics.

Corrin's fingernails are bright and colorful, a personally painted tableau.
For inspiration before jumps, she puts her thumbs together to read "This moment is yours." Another nail is emblazoned with a white No. 13 — "My lucky number for soccer and I was born on the 13th," she explains — and others with stars. "Shoot for the stars," she says, giggling.
Then there's her left ring finger, its nail painted a bold red with a white 20.
