As a freshman I really didn't want to try new stuff. I was afraid of smacking the water, but that's just part of the sport. You've got to get used to it, get over that hump and then you'll learn it. |
I was looking for a sport that I could really get into and that I was pretty good at. I was trying out everything, so I thought let's try diving at the very end. So I tried it and I like it. |
It was my first time to go up on the podium and accept an award. I was really excited, especially to have Lisa there with me. And I was a little shocked. I was really kind of surprised, but happy. It shows the hard work has paid off. |
