WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED ABOUT YOURSELF DURING THE PANDEMIC?

“I learned that I really am a self motivated person. Even when times get hard, I find something to do and get back onto that field.”

WHAT MEMORIES DO YOU HAVE LEAVING SCHOOL?

“Throughout the year it has been really hard but I’ve made so many memories with this team, probably more than I’ve made in my whole life, just being on the field with them.”

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

”Just keep working, find something to motivate you, stay on track and don’t lose focus; don’t let distractions get in your way.”
