VYPE: What has your sport taught you that you use in your daily life?

Brooke: It has taught me about consistency and if you show up everyday results will follow.

VYPE: What is your favorite part about being on a team? 

Brooke: Teammates are there to hold each other accountable and the team atmosphere gives you a greater passion and purpose than just playing and representing yourself.

VYPE: When and how did you first get into playing your sport?

Brooke: I have always played basketball since I could walk because my dad had coached my older siblings, but I started playing softball as something to fill my fall sport time in middle school and ended up loving it.

VYPE: What teammate has left the biggest impression on you and why?

Brooke: Carley Gasaway, she was always a true leader verbally but mostly by example. She was the first one to hold you accountable but the first one to encourage.

VYPE: What is your favorite part about representing your high school as an athlete?
