How did you hear about women’s

I first heard about it after a flag football game. A few members of
the team we were playing play for the Divas.

Why do you want to play women’s
football?
This is something very new for me and I’m all about trying new things.
I’ve never been a part of a team this size and caliber, and most people who know me
would not expect me to be playing tackle football. This will shock a lot of people. I
think it will be a great experience for me. Most importantly, I would like to be a part
of getting the national championship back.

What does it mean to you to be a D.C.
Diva?
Defying the odds and stereotypes, being strong and resilient, and
working together as a unit to achieve a common goal.
