She’s the first to help a teammate up, give encouragement, or celebrate their big play,” said Coach Clendenin. He continued, “She is an outstanding player but even more of an outstanding young lady.”
Chloe began playing when she was in middle school. She loves the friendships she has made because of being involved in sports.
