Get to Know Audrey
-Enjoys the music of the Sidewalk Prophets and spending vacation time in Long Beach Island
- Favorites include the book "Crazy Love," the movie "The Breakfast Club" and the TV series "Friends" and "The Walking Dead"
- A fan of hockey's Martin Brodeur, football's New York Jets, basketball's Brooklyn Nets, hockey's New Jersey Devils, and singer Taylor Swift
- Self-description in 10 words or less: "Christian and athlete"
- My favorite aspect of being an athlete is: "the love of the game. It's the feeling you get when you're playing and you know there's nothing else you'd rather be doing. It's as if a piece of you would be missing if you couldn't play. It means more than being your favorite sport. It's where your heart belongs."
- The part of my game I've improved the most is: "letting go of mistakes. I used to beat myself up for making any kind of mistake, especially when I got scored on. It took until my junior year to get over the mistakes I would make. After that, I improved everywhere else because I started to learn from mistakes instead of dwelling on them."
- My personal athletic goal at VWC is: "based on the idea that if you aim high but fall short you'll still achieve something better than where you started. My goal is to earn a starting position by next season. For now, I want to get to know my team and be a positive addition."
- If I could spend a day with a famous person from any time period it would be: "Jesus. I would just want to know what it would feel like to be in His presence. I would listen and follow His word. I would praise Him."
- People might be surprised to know: "I'm really religious. Most people don't already know this because I was just recently saved. It took me a while, but I found my way back to Him."
- It's the year 2030 and: "I'm teaching math at my old high school or I'm protecting ocean life on a tropical island somewhere. I'm with my family. My husband and I are teaching our children what it means to follow God."
