Mary Beth Raabe and Grayson Putt with their promposal

Junior Mary Beth Raabe didn’t have to look very hard when coming up with her sport-inspired promposal.

Freshman Grayson Putt has always been involved in track and a so-called “sneakerhead” so Mary Beth used these interests in her promposal.

“I thought the idea was really cool. I used to be really into sneakers so I thought it was neat,” said Putt.

Mary Beth was very nervous to prompose because she has never done it before. Also, Grayson was walking to the track, where the promposal was being set up, much earlier than she was expecting, making it extremely nerve wracking.

“I had changed the plan at least three times before I had finally settled on my poster. I wanted to incorporate his love for track and my love for dance all in one,” said Raabe.

Grayson was not expecting the promposal at all, but he knew he would say yes when he saw it.

Both Mary Beth and Grayson are looking forward to spending their first prom together and having fun.
