- Her greatest moment in sports thus far was when 'my 18s team went to a tournament and on the first day we got absolutely crushed and were feeling defeated, but the second day we came ion and locked in and won all of our games setting us up for a good bracket on the final day. The final day came and we were doing so good and managed to come from behind and win second place in the whole tournament, securing us a spot in nationals.'
