TODAY IS NATIONAL GIRLS
& WOMEN IN SPORTS DAY
Here are two-time Olympic medalist (now National Fastpitch Pro) Jessica
Mendoza's top five reasons to play sports...
1. To stand out... to be above the
average.
2. To be confident -- about who we are
and why we want even more success.
3. To look good... the more active we
are, the healthier we become.
4. To be leaders. We know what it
takes to be successful, and that the road is anything but easy...
5. Because we love it... The sweat, the
camaraderie, the doubleheaders, the laughter, superstitions, winning,
failure, handling failure, heart-thumping pressure, ridiculous
nicknames ... even working out when no one is watching because you
want to be the best.
