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

See skill levels advancing for myself and teammates. As a Captain, pushing my teammates outside their comfort zones to expand personal and team goals. Seeing my team tackling many challenges and overcoming them to the positive side.


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

My dad as my first coach in all sports and always been my rock. Through the wins, losses, and injuires. He is always in my corner cheering me on or chatting on how to improve. Without him, i would be lost. Coach Pedro for selecting me to club soccer team, noticing and unknown skill talent and encouraging me on developing my goalie skills and now challenging me in a different field role. Goalie coaches Charlie and Giuseppe, pushing me beyond my zone and having me mentoring younger athletes


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

Sofia sustained a severe bone contusion on her knee that sidelined her for 6 weeks. She showed for every practice and games to support her teams (soccer, basketball and softball). No injury will keep her from her teammates.
