WHAT DOES 'SUCCESS' MEAN TO YOU?: Success means walking off a field knowing you did everything you could for your team to win.

FAVORITE MOMENT AS AN ATHLETE: The full circle moment of winning states my senior year after winning my freshman year. It was such a fulfilling moment representing all the hard work our team invested into the program.
