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

What Aniya loves playing about her sport is the energy and the people she plays it with, she always is ready to play with her teammates and stick beside them no matter what.


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

The people who inspire Aniya is A’ja Wilson, her grandfather who passed and very close friend who just passed two months ago. The reason they inspire her is because they all never gave up and always had a genuine love for the passion they had.


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

One athletic journey that made me the proudest was when Aniya was playing school volleyball she did not get much playing time. But when she got in the playoff game to go to the championship Aniya got the game winning serve and got the game winning block in the championship aswell!
