Q. How does it feel to have earned this award?
Winning this award has been a great feeling. It helps me know how much I have improved over the past few months and know others think I deserve it.
Q. What do you hope to achieve before co-ed nationals and no-sting national?
Before co-ed nationals as well as no sting nationals, I hope to achieve better skills in play calling and get my throw more accurate.
Q. What role do you hope to fill on the court in future tournaments?
A role I would like to fill in the court in the future would be captain next year, or at least a position on the board to show my commitment and leadership.
Q. How does it feel to be a member of the first women’s team at UW-Platteville?
It feels like an honor to be a member of the first women’s team here at Platteville. I hope the group continues to grow and we can continue with a team.
As a member of the women’s team, I can say that we are profoundly thankful for Tori and the other women team members for sticking it out and allowing us to achieve this goal. We are looking forward to watch Tori grow into the player she wants to become!
