Q. Best advice you have ever been given?
A. Coach Blackmore always tells me there are only bad moments not bad days! That is something that has changed my outlook on the days that are a little harder! My Uncle Junior always tells me, “ If you aren’t playing to win, then why are you playing?” It’s a reminder to always go out there and play to win, not just play to not lose.
