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

She loves to play midi, she's able to score and defend while running the whole field. She dominates the field!


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

Her little sister played box lacrosse and Caoime played field, there was a competition between the two to see who's sport was better. Caoimhe's sister dropped box lacrosse, while focusing on hockey. Caoimhe fell in love with the sport and has a deep compassion for it.


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

It was her last game of the season, 1 quarter left. Waiting to sub in, Caoimhe threw her mouth gaurd in and somehow bit down and knocked out her baby tooth. Blood everywhere; completely lost faith in herself, wanted to quit right then and there. With a pep talk from her mom, realizing she can't quit on her team, Caoimhe runs back in and scores 3 goals; 2 assists and able to block every pass her opponents made. Winning their final game of the season!
