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

What I love most about playing flag football is the friendships I make along the way. I love meeting new people, getting to know my teammates, and making fun memories together. It’s not just about playing the sport, but also about the people I get to meet and the friendships that come from it!


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

My mom inspires me the most. She always pushes me to do my best and supports me every step of the way. She takes me to practice, helps me with my equipment, and makes sure I have everything I need, even my jersey. I’m thankful for everything she does to help me keep playing the sport I love.


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

One moment that makes me the proudest is getting noticed all over the RGV for playing flag football. It makes me proud to see that my hard work is being noticed and that I’m making a name for myself while doing something I love. It also motivates me to keep working hard and improving.
