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

Eden loves the challenges of the game. The fact that her team is a second family on and off the field and she gets to build her sportsmanship to be better on and off the field.


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

Eden is inspired by her older brother. Their bond has grown stronger along with their constant encouragement to continue to try their best.


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

Last season was Edens fist ever time playing on a football team. In their first game she took a hit and the pain was seen on her face. When given the option to sit or continue, she looked to her teammates who were also showing signs of wanting to call it( with it being their first year) she looked next at me and said mommy I wanna go back out there. "I wanna go put that boy on his butt like he did me"., with her passion to keep going her team rallies behind and all go back on the field.
