A Person(s) Who Had A Major Impact On My Athletic Career & Why Is…
My 8th grade school basketball coach, Mr. Swanson played an influential role in who I am as a player today. Preparing me to be an all around player in high school, he encouraged me to try different positions and confident in my shooting. Even today as my PE teacher he will acknowledge the growth I have had as a player and continues to encourage me to excel in every game. I would also have to say my Mom has had a big impact on my athletic career because she’s always been there to support me, help me through injuries, and travel to my games no matter how far away they are.

I am currently accepted to the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point planning to major in business economics and minor in accounting.
