Who was most influential in your high school athletics?

Both Amanda Forsberg and Joe Yaeger helped me through a lot of hardship. I can turn to them any time I have a problem and trust their opinions in and out of the pool. They helped me regain my love for the sport and are a huge reason why I want to continue swimming in college.

What does it mean to you to be nominated for this award?

With such a talented group of female athletes in my grade, I was shocked to find out I was nominated. I think it’s really cool to be recognized for my athletic achievements. It’s a positive way to encourage and promote female athletics in the community and I’m glad to be a part of it.
