Hancock.
I came to Liberty because …
I really like Lynchburg and everyone here is very helpful and nice.

To sit at home and take care of my children and house. Also to be a wonderful wife.
The team that I'm most looking forward to competing against this year is (and why) …
Virginia Tech, because my boyfriend attends that school and is also an athlete. I really want to beat them so I can tease him.
If you could have one super power, what would it be and why?
My super power would be to be able to fly so I could fly around the bases and never be tagged out.

The Hills! I love the girls on there and they are so beautiful.
If I were named "Coach for a Day", I would make my coaches (and why) …

I always wanted to run a business. I was all about business. Yes, I'm still pursuing it. My major is business management.
