Advice You Would Give To A Freshman High School Athlete
For freshman athletes, I would tell them not to stress about practices or meets, just do your best! Your team will support you no matter what, so just put your all into it!
A Person(s) Who Had A Major Impact On My Athletic Career & Why Is…
While my parents have played a big part in my athletic career, I believe that Coach Calliari have made the most impact. She has always helped push me to work my hardest and put my all into it, even when I was having bad days and may not have wanted to. She also always made sure that I could balance my physical health along with my mental health, which is a very big deal to me, and I appreciate it greatly 🙂
