If you could play any sport for the Tar Heels other than softball what would it be?
asketball
Do you have any pre-game rituals?
I listen to music.
Which of your teammates is funniest? Why?
Amber Johnson, she is a character.
Which athlete (collegiate or professional) do you admire most? Why?
Muhammad Ali, because I think he is the greatest athelete because of his incredible work ethic, and his infamous quotes are the best.
What is your favorite restaurant on Franklin Street? Why?
Franklin Street Pizza and Pasta because it has the best pizza I have ever had, and you can get a slice for $1.80!
What song do you want to play when you come up to bat? Why?
Push It by Rick Ross or Stronger by Kanye West because these are two of the songs that I have to listen to before games.
What is your favorite thing to do on a Friday night?
Hang out with the team or go see another sport play.
What is the best advice you have ever received, and who gave it to you?
I read a quote saying, "Adversity causes some to break, and others to break records," and I think this is good advice because it reminds me every time things get hard that I could either give in or get better.
If you were stranded on a desert island what three things would you want with you? Why?
My cell phone, so I could call for help, my laptop so I could stay up-to-date on Facebook and know what all my friends were doing and some water so that I would not be dehydrated.
