Size: 5-foot-10
Sports: Football (kicker), basketball (wing), soccer (midfielder) and track and field (sprinter, relays)
College plans: Too far in the future, but she wants to play at least one sport, likely basketball or track.
Favorite athletes: Kobe Bryant and Allyson Felix. "I like Kobe because of the way he controls the court and leads. I like Allyson not only because she's really fast, but I just like her attitude. She seems focused and poised."
Coach speak: "There's not anything she can't do," said her football and track coach Kiante Welch. "She's a really funny kid. Silly. Everyone likes being around her. But when the ball goes up or the starting gun goes off, she's ready. Her upside is pretty remarkable."
Basketball coach J Silas: "She's a legitimate athlete. She can jump, sprint, defend. We can play her anywhere on the court. What sets her apart from her peers is just how competitive she is."
