Baez 2020 Season Stats

Most Memorable Moment (Your Sport): Scoring a goal, assisted by my girl Angelina Horan!
Most Memorable Moment (Outside Your Sport): Hanging out with the girls! Hill Days, Wednesdays, 220 etc.
Who would you consider a role model from your time at D&E?: Coach Kelly, hands down, because he never gave up on our team. Coming into a team that hadn’t won a game and coaching us to a winning season (11-6) is quite an accomplishment. Coach Kelly taught me many life lessons, but one that has really stuck with me is to not settle and always push yourself to be the best you can be both on and off the field. #MyForeverCoach
