Let me tell y'all about my teammates.
Growing up I was always told to surround myself with people who want to be like me or people who want to go in the same direction, well I did.
My AAU teammates and I have been together since we were 8 years old and this past summer was our last summer together before we go off to college. Those girls are my second family.
Salita Greene, the laid back one.
Jade Phillips, She is CRAZY!
Jessica Wall and Taylor Headon are the twin midget towers.
Carly Lytton, the blonde.
Kelsey Mahoney, the Taylor Swift fanatic
Yakima Clifton, the country one.
Taylor Petty, the sarcastic one.
Shontai, the bully.
Some of us have been in the All-star family from the beginning and som have joined us along the way. We have been through things like haunted hotels in Kentucky, which was the scariest moment I have ever experienced, to the crazy bus ride to Tennessee, all the way to the adventures in Mall of America in Minnesota. From lame cheers before our games to the dance battles in hotel rooms. From the times where we could not catch a ball to all of us having the opportunity to play on the next level. We have been to war together for the past 8 to 9 years. We have cried, laughed, and shed blood together. I can not believe it all came to an end this summer. I am blessed and thankful that I was able to be a part of such an amazing group of girls and staff.
I am sad that it is over, but good things sometimes come to an end. So to all my teammates and coaches, I love you all and I will cherish all the moments we had together. We will always be the Carolina Allstars 2015 SQUAD!!!
