Nayeli loves being part of a team, she loves learning and growing as an athlete and the lesson she has learned will influence her as she grows into a strong person.
Her team mates and coaches inspire her to be better, when she is feeling like she is not preforming at her best they lift her up. She is also inspired by her older sister who plays softball, she looks up to her and is inspired by the work she puts in to become her best.
During the playoffs Nayeli was going for the flag her and the runner had a bad collision unfortunately ending Nayeli's playing time for the rest of the season because of bad cut that required 8 stitches above her eye. All though Nayeli was bummed she couldn't play she was the teams biggest cheerleader going from the ER back to the field to cheer her team on for the 3rd play off game and cheering them on at the championship game! At a young age she showed up and knows the true meaning of sportsma
