• My greatest memory was during my 7th grade volleyball season when we went to state; we were a group of average athletes who just clicked. We wore oversized jerseys and baggy shorts. I'm sure the other teams thought we were a bunch of scrubs, but we showed them by beating them and getting 3rd place.
