I am a 13-year-old entering 8th grade in Trumbull with aspirations to go to college and play water polo. I entered the sport when I became bored of swimming because I needed a team atmosphere and loved being in the water. I found a passion for the sport and joined a competitive team and have never looked back. Something that helps me stand out is that I am primarily a lefty and while I enjoy playing flat and wing my coach also puts me at the set position when needed. My parents have instilled a love of sports, competition, and academics within me, as they are both teachers, coaches, and athletes. I think something that makes me different from others my age is that I am a team player and I am not all about the shots, I love a good assist. I want my team to win any way we can and while I love making my own goals, I love setting my teammates up for success, ultimately setting the team up for success as well.
