"Basketball is my sport, my joy and my passion. I feel energized when I crossed someone over or when I blow by a defender." -Vanessa De Jesus "It makes me feel good, and I get excited when I get to ride my horses. I love to see my hard work pay off after practicing so much." -Gracie Perez "I feel strong and powerful because I know I can do anything. I love how confident I am in myself and the feeling of believing in myself and what I do." -Kiyomi Genewick "When I am in the ocean, I'm 100 percent in the moment. It clears my head and fires me up to have a great day. It's more than just a sport -- it's a lifestyle! And one I'm so stoked to be living!" -Kyra Williams "I love everything about me when I play. I love how I'm positive and not negative when I'm playing. Whether I am on or off the court, I love myself, and I am confident." -Kalli Minor "I am a fairly passive person off the track. I focus on school to keep straight As. But when I race, I feel it's my time to be aggressive and outsmart the competition, which is mainly boys that do not want a girl beating them. That's what makes it that much better! Racing has taught me to never back down and that it's not over until the checkered flag is waved!" -Hailee Deegan "When I'm playing basketball, it makes me feel like I am in control and what I do and how hard I play matters -- not just to me but also to my team. I love knowing that I am prepared, confident, not scared, and that I'm ready to play." -Kumi Tamura "I love the butterflies in my stomach, the excitement of it all and the wonderful sensation that it's just me and my horse. You have to be daring, trusting in your horse, and believe anything is possible." -Skylar Alves "I can do all things. I want to run in the 2024 Olympics and play in the WNBA. Nothing can stop me -- nothing. And If I want to be great, I can't wait for things to happen. I gotta make them happen. I'm not afraid to go for it. I kinda feel fearless when I run and play sports." -Maya Rush “Every kid and athlete has a dream of doing something three times in a row. I never personally been like I want to hit three homers in a game. To have it happen is amazing. However, those three homers don’t mean anything if Ambar isn’t dealing and my teammates aren’t making plays.” -Holiday Cahill |
AuthorHi, I'm Jenna and I'm a sports fan! I've been avidly watching sports since 2011 because I found that by watching sports, I would be able to communicate with my dad and brother better. Ever since I got into sports, I've been able to enjoy myself more when I go to sporting events with my family. Archives
