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

Playing with the girls on my team. Getting to compete at the highest level with them.

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

My nana and papa, even though they are busy working they still show up for me. They are at all my games cheering me on and my teammates!

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

While competing at nationals we ran into some turbulence and she was asked to play all around. She is normally a setter but showed up blocked and even had some great kills. Her resilience and heart are what makes me most proud.
