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

She loves the bonds and support she gets to share. She likes to share her love for the sports she does. She is the first to All-American at Fargo nationals for the girls at her school, and she wants to encourage her other teammates to get there as well. She has pushed other teammates to throw better in shot and disc. Having fun while helping someone learn, and making memories that will last a lifetime is part of who she is.

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

First of all God he is my lord and savior he has brought me to the sport of wrestling and it has done many things for me not only on the mat but as a human being. Secondly my coaches they help me even when I don’t want to be at practice or at runs but they help me stay on the grind. Third, my family and teammates they all strive to be there and watch and support.

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

When she loses, she doesn’t blame others. She works hard and comes back better. She has beaten girls in wrestling that she lost to only weeks before. In those moments of finding out what you are made of, she is confident and strong, she is tough and still caring, hugging the competition after the last whistle. There isn’t one moment, it’s every time she competes!
