The Transcript:

There’s so many amazing memories here, but probably my most favorite memory is in 2008, we hosted the National Championships for CIS, and we won.  So, playing in front of a home crowd and having our family and friends be able to watch us.  For us, for the University of Lethbridge obviously competing on the biggest stage of the CIS and winning the Nationals was a huge moment for me, and I have gone on to compete on the biggest stages in the world and that memory still sticks with me as one of my favorites, over my career.  So that’s a huge experience that I’ll never forget.  Yeah.  

Yeah, I guess other ones are, I mean,  just being with friends and enjoying the university experience.  We went to lots of basketball games and watching other sports.  And then another one is meeting my husband here, which was amazing.  Third year, we, the University Athletics Program does a program called Operation Red Nose, and I met my husband through that program and got to know him better and we’ve been together ever since.  Got married, and we got to go to school together for two years, so it was pretty sweet.
