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

She lives for the competition, that’s what drives her. Putting in the hard work to constantly get better and have the motivation from her family and her team to push harder and keep going.


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

My mom inspires me because she has always taught me to never give up for what i want to accomplish. She has taught me that no matter how hard something is to try and achieve it no matter what.


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

Honestly, there's too many times to even consider counting that ive been proud of you. But the ones that stand out the most isn't when you win or the medals -- its watching you cheer on your team and your competitors. It's the way you carry yourself with such grace, integrity, and resilience regardless of whether you win or lose. You walking off the track knowing you gave it your all thats honestly what makes me the proudest.
