v My best non-athletic talent is watching movies
all day. v The greatest invention of the last 100 years is
Skype. v My favorite thing about Happy Valley is the
people are literally HAPPY. v I chose Penn State because it is an amazing
school. v The best part of practice is when Coquese
trips over an imaginary line and we all get a good laugh. v My favorite Lady Lion tradition is not having our names on our jerseys. v My dream team would be me, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Dirk Nowitzki and Dwight Howard (just so I can meet them).
