What is Youth Athlete of the Year?

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

Not only does it keep her mentally and physically healthy, it allows her to make friends, build a connection with coaches, teaches her to take full responsibility of communication and ownership of her sport, and most importantly challenges her to never give up during hard time and to stay consistent when life isn't.


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

Caeleb Dressel inspires her the most because he took a break for his wellbeing, but came back even stronger, and showed that he fell in love with swimming again, and that you can take a break to come back better.


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

Showing up to practice and working her hardest, and performing well and seeing her have fun with her team.
