Favorite Sport and why: I like all my sports for different reasons. I love volleyball, because my Mimi (Emy Prokes) was a good volleyball player and she loves to watch me play. Learning how to play softball was a fun way to spend time with my dad and brother, because they were big into baseball. Aand my mom used to do ooms when she was in high school so when I started poms in 7th grade, she was super excited. I just don’t think I could pick a favorite sport because each one of them brought different girls into my life that are now my lifelong friends.
