“My favorite part of this team is the diverse teammates and coaching staff and it’s just very fun and enjoyable” said Dawes. Among those teammates was former salt hawk – Sarah Shortz. Dawes said that Shortz was an amazing influence to have. All this and more has taught Dawes “As long as you work hard you will get to where you need or what you want”.
Dawes told VYPE that if she could share any piece of advice she’d say “Don’t give up on your dreams and what you want in YOUR life”.
