Grade-point average: 3.58

Sports: Volleyball, basketball and softball

College: Undecided; will likely play basketball and major in athletic training

Question: What are some of the most memorable moments in your high school athletic career?

Answer: Probably the first time we beat Tri-Valley in basketball. That was a big moment, because we had never beaten Tri-Valley since I've been in high school. It was pretty big. Also beating West M at West M.

Q: Who has been the biggest influence on your athletic career?

A: I would say my dad. He's always pushed me to be the best that I can be. He's helped me to always try my hardest even when things aren't going well.

Q: What advice would you give to your two younger brothers as they go through high school athletics?

A: Just to keep working hard. Hard work pays off.

Q: Is there anything else you would like to add?

A: I thank God everyday for everything I've been given. All the things I've been able to do, I couldn't have done without my teammates and coaches.
