Meeting other players that have the same goals and expectations as me, exploring different gyms at different locations in state or out of state. After all the practices, I love seeing how much I have improved since I started. -LaKaya
My teammates and coach that have become my family. Cheering for me and helping me improve. Also my Dad is who inspires me, his teaching and encouragement during practices. Always reminding me about my education. -LaKaya
There’s not just one moment but one moment in every game that makes me proudest of her and that’s when she shows her kindness of helping when someone falls either it’s her teammate or opponent. She’ll ask if they’re “okay”. The warmth of her kindness is well felt.
