I could have never dreamed what an amazing ride this has been.

My life has been centered around sports. It is where I have met my closest friends and shaped the values that have made me a successful athlete, student and role model for young people.

College was the greatest four years of my life.

I try to not be too hard on myself regarding my diet. I've always been a workout-to-eat kind of a girl. I like to eat, to say the least.

My goal is to never lose. That may not be realistic, but I'm going to try.

I've face more than 35 major leaguers, and only two have ever made contact against me.

It's so empowering to see yourself as a machine.
