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

Gymnastics is a passion. From a young age it has always been her sport. Volleyball and track have proven to be sports she also excels at. In fact, she was asked to join a traveling team this season. The competition and challenge with each sport is what she loves most.

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

Her coaches. Her teammates. Jordan Chiles. Joscelyn Roberson.

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

Seeing her win state titles in 4 of 5 categories as a first year Bronze gymnast. And watching her achieve new skills in the gym.
