I have gotten to know so many coaches that have made a lasting impression on me, and for that, I will be forever grateful.  

To my coaches and teammates at Blessed Trinity, thank you for your support and guidance. Let's win #four in 2020!!! Mom, Dad, and Elijah, you have been my driving force, and I couldn't have done any of this without you. Thank you for your love, support, and endless prayers. Thank you to all my family and friends who have supported me throughout my journey.
