This song's written from the perspective of some sort of journalist/track and field talent scout. He talks about a boy he "never rated" Then he talks about writing a piece about her now that she's made it.
I think it's ambiguous as to whether she's a lesbian or not. The third line, "They never know it," could refer to her being a lesbian or simply her being rather promiscuous/sexually deviant.
"She never needed anyone to get around the track
But when she's on her back she had the knowledge to get her into college."
She's an accomplished track runner, but it seems she doesn't do well in her studies, so she uses sex to advance her academic career. Seems she probably uses it to advance her social standing on the track team as well.
