Name (Age): Eustacia "Stace" Mack (59)

Current Residence: Ann Arbor, Michigan

Occupations: College Cross Country Coach (at University of Michigan)

Hobbies: Running, Hanging out with my girls, surprising my girls with my technological abilities!

Pet Peeves: Quitters and people who don't care at all. I would hate to waste my life away.

3 Words to Describe You: Driven, Brave, Stubborn

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: I'm a competitive person, and I like to succeed. One of my state level girls got be into watching the show. My first season was Gabon, and when I saw Bob win, I was inspired to try and do the same. I want to break the record for oldest Sole Survivor, and I want to show my girls you can do whatever you put your mind to. The money would also be great, and I'd be lying if I said it wasn't also a main motivator.

Confessional: "I'm not necessarily your typical older woman. I'm a sports coach, not a puzzler. I'll probably be better at the physical stuff out here than fitting together little jigsaw pieces. However, I'll do whatever I have to win. My girls, the girls I coach for my cross country team, have taught me so much about hard work and never giving up and doing whatever you can to get the win. This is for them, and for me. Oh, and don't forget about the money!"

Strategy/Gameplay: Stace knows she'll be underestimated for her age. She plans to go in and be a strong worker and competitor, proving her worth so she's kept around in the game. She's not a schemer or amazing strategist, so she'll try and pick an alliance and stick to it best she can. She's willing to flip and cut ties, but she wants to find a person or two to stay absolutely loyal to so they can work together to make it far in the game. She also plans to try and win many Individual Immunities like Bob Crowley, her Survivor inspiration. She plans to use a combination of her physical skill and social skills along with her storyline of being underestimated to win.

Predicted Placement: 6th
