Stephanie Opene '15 Recruiting Profile

There are many things that lead to success such as hard work, determination, talent, strive, and heart. And inspirational quote that I always use over and over again is "hard work beats talent when talent fails to work hard". Over and over again I would hear this and it was ingrained into my mind. This quote was me. I never felt like I had talent, I never felt like I was better than any of the other players, but I would always give my 300% into anything that we would do. I've jumped from sports to sport because I've never really found something that I loved to do until  shot put and discus. During my first year I just decided to join the sport to keep busy and I have gotten significantly better as the season progressed last year and as I work during the off-season by myself.
