Favorite Quote: “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood…who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” -Theodore Roosevelt

Sport Highlight: Winning our school’s first-ever men’s volleyball home game this past spring. After we won in 5 sets, our students stormed the court. Considering that all my teammates were new to volleyball, we had come a long way in just a few weeks to be competitive that early in the season, and I was so proud to be part of this team.
