Great teammates, an outlet for her passion, respected for her abilities, a great education - and she's 17 with all the stuff most 17 year olds love, all around her - she must be in heaven when she is in the Mall of America and stops and thinks about it... Cold? What cold...

She is absolutely amazing!! I've seen 2 or 3 gopher matches on TV, and she has the hardest serve I've ever seen. She's still developing some consistency with it, because when you serve a ball that hard, you can often hit it long or into the net. But as the article says, in one of those games, I saw her get the Gophers 7 points in a row, with 4 of them on aces. I love her, and she is just going to get better and better. I'm really glad we've got her.
