WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED ABOUT YOURSELF DURING THE PANDEMIC?

“The pandemic presented a lot of challenges for us like it did for everyone. I learned how to push past it especially in the basketball setting because we’ve had to wear masks and push through a lot of things to be able to play. It’s taught me that I’m resilient.”

WHAT MEMORIES DO YOU HAVE LEAVING SCHOOL?

“This year has been the most memorable years. I have a lot of memories with lots of friends and even family coming to watch me play. I think my favorite memory has to be this basketball season and growing in friendship with this new team and the underclassmen and just having fun.”

WHAT MESSAGE DO YOU HAVE TO STUDENTS AS THE PANDEMIC CONTINUES TO IMPACT HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS AND EDUCATION?

“Life is tough and everyone tells you that. Pushing through is the best thing you can do and working hard is the way to get to success.”
