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

She loves the challenge, the teamwork, and the joy of always learning something new. Whether it’s a big win or a tough practice, she finds happiness in being active, pushing herself, and supporting her teammates. Her favorite part is the feeling of accomplishment after giving her all—and seeing her hard work pay off.


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

I’m inspired by my teammates and coaches because they always work hard and push me to be better. But mostly, I look up to my parents. They support me no matter what and they show me how to stay strong and never give up. They remind me that it’s not just about being good at something—it’s about trying your best and having a good attitude.


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

When she dislocated her elbow falling off the bars just two days before regionals, she was heartbroken. But after healing, she couldn’t wait to get back in the gym. She worked so hard to rebuild her strength and skills, and never gave up. Watching her push through fear and frustration with grit and determination made me prouder than any medal ever could.
