Quotable: "It's truly an honor to be selected for this award. I couldn't have done it without my teammates and my coaches, as well as my father being my role model that he is to me. Although this is an individual award, it reflects every single one of my teammates, without them I wouldn't have been able to go play the sport I love. As for representing the Texas Panhandle, it's amazing."
