This recurring segment will highlight a senior Gustavus athlete each week.
Q: What are your expectations for the season?
A: My expectations for this season are to be the best person and player I can be on and off the court. Another expectation is teaching the upcoming freshman how to be team players and how they should care for one another and present Gustavus’ “3 Crowns”; sportsmanship, effort and attitude.
Q: What is your best athletic memory?
A: In last year’s regional finals against Trinity University-Texas, me and my doubles partner Mya Smith Dennis played incredibly well and won our match. Overall, we lost the match 5-4, but as a team we fought until the last point and everyone playing was giving full effort every single point. It was also the last match for a lot of seniors that are close friends of mine.
Q: Why would you recommend Gustavus?
A: I recommend Gustavus to new students because the school brings a really close community. What I like about GAC is that professors give one on one attention to the students which I found really helpful as an international student. Overall, the atmosphere is awesome.
