* What has competing in athletics taught you? “It’s taught me discipline and teamwork and leadership. Those are probably the three main skills I’ve learned throughout high school.”

* What’s your pre-game routine? “We usually go to someone’s house for a home-made dinner and we watch “Ellen” together.

* Favorite movie: Mean Girls.
* Favorite TV show: Pretty Little Liars.
* Favorite Web site/video game: Twitter. She likes to play Sims on her home computer.
