Quote:
"Emory softball is simply another example of how well thisuniversity challenges me as a person. It is a mistaken notion thatintellectual, emotional, and mental growing only takes place in theclassroom because on the field -- again and again -- my coaches andteammates have demanded new levels of excellence from me. Part ofour philosophy as a team applies to the university's philosophy:you cannot achieve greatness unless you demand it."
