“I love my teammates. I love my coaches.” — Elana Meyers Quote

“I love my teammates. I love my coaches.”

“I think the hardest thing is that all of us would love to just stick to sports - but if you want us to be role models to kids, then you need to stand for more than just sports.”

“I grew up playing softball, and at the age of nine, I decided I was going to be an Olympian. I didn't really know what that meant at the time. I thought it might be in a warm summer sport like softball, but I played a variety of sports growing up - basketball, soccer and track. I really didn't care. I just wanted to be an Olympian.”

“I think we all are coaches in our own respect because we have to try to figure out a way to help make people better than we really are, and that's what leaders do.”

“I have worked on my defense skills and played in the midfield as well. Coaches are preparing players to play at any given position.”

“In NFL preseason, the coaches don't use 10% of the playbook. They don't game plan. They do nothing. They don't give anything away for the regular season. They try to get everybody safely through it without anybody getting hurt.”
