Army West Point Athletics

To my senior teammates, the countdown has begun until we are dispersed not only all over the country, but all over the world. I am not ready to say goodbye. I do not want the day to come where we must part from each other and leave everything this place has given us. If you know me, you know this is pretty crazy for me to say because I struggled in the beginning and it was you ten girls who got me through the hard times. You have become my sisters, and I will be forever grateful for what I have learned from each of you.

To Rilee: Thank you for being the most positive and caring person I have ever met. You have shown me how to “find your yellow” and I will keep this valuable lesson with me wherever I go as I try to find my yellow.

Maddie Burns: You can make any person’s day with your wittiness and incredible humor. You are a great friend to all, and I will miss your dancing with your chest protector the most.

Juliana: You have been there with me through it all since the first day we stepped foot on campus. You are a unique individual to say the least, and I am beyond grateful to have a best friend like you, 34.

Maddie Miller – Mills!: Who is going to yell “Teeeeeks” to me now? I am going to miss your constant energy. It is very contagious. Never change, Milly.

Taylor Andrews: You are one of the most competitive and hardworking people I have ever met. I will miss all the fun times with you, Tay A.

Isa: You have taught me to always go with the flow and roll with the punches while staying cool, calm, and collected. I will always miss hyping you up when you make crazy defensive plays as the nugget queen.

Sami: I am so thankful for how close we’ve become over the course of the past year. Thanks for always appreciating SpongeBob with me and being the worst influence when it comes to McDonald’s and anything unhealthy.

Madeline Leahy: You are a “low key savage.” You are one of the smartest people I have ever met, but you are also one of the biggest savages I know. You are going to do great things wherever you go and whatever you do. Thank you for always keeping me humble, but also for being a great friend.

Ryan: I will miss our countless fun times and memories. I have always admired your hard work and dedication to everything you do. Hopefully we can play attack in the alumni games so we can finally get the chance to score in a game.

Emma: Wow, how much we have grown since club lacrosse. I am so happy I was able to convince you to go to West Point with me, but most people would probably think it was the other way around because of how well you have thrived here. Thank you for being my best friend since we were little high schoolers, even though I was friends with your twin first. Swole team forever.
