What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

She loves the feeling of being on that field and doing what she loves! Whether it be field hockey, deck hockey or ice hockey! The feeling of playing hockey, scoring, and getting better & better at the sport just makes her that much more devoted & anxious to trying to become a professional hockey player in the future! She also loves making new friends from playing her sports!


Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

On the field, her coaches and teammates inspire her! Seeing how good they are she wants to be as talented as they are. Without her coaches pushing them to do better knowing they have what it takes she’s where she’s at because of them. Off the field, her family inspires her due to the encouragement we always give her. We always support her and are there for every single moment! We are her role models and what keep her going.


What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

One moment is seeing how far she’s come along in a sport she had no idea in how to play to becoming one of the best players, scorers on her team! Becoming captain for her Jv team in high school while being a 8th grader! Without her dedication to field hockey, always trying her hardest, never giving up no matter how hard it got, always having good sportsmanship has brought her so far into this field hockey journey of hers. Now being in varsity her freshmen year!
