Emily is thankful and appreciates being chosen as Athlete of the Week!!! She wants to thank everyone that has helped her get to this place and her father and mother ae on top of the list. Her father inspires her aggressive play style, and her mother always motivates her to get better.

She also thanks her brother Jacob for keeping her tough by always arguing and fighting with her, but she knows it is out of love.

Emily also wants to thank her Grand Terrace Community Soccer Club coaches, Noris Rhodius and Richard Irwin. They taught her a lot about not only soccer, but teamwork, attitude, discipline, attention to detail, and how a team can work hard together and become a family. 

Congratulations to this Lady Titan and I wish her all the best in her future endeavors. She sure has a bright future ahead of her.
