During her high school career, Long was a member of the Lady Pirates’ softball and volleyball teams. She earned numerous awards in softball, including All District, All State and All Conference and plans to join the ECSU Lady Vikings.
The Hurdle scholarship began with Perquimans High’s Class of 2021.
