It's good to find a focus. Well, this team has really good players and I think just being around them every day for four years now, it just makes me a better person and player. But who says you need just one? There you go. I just really like being busy. Honestly, I like having a lot of stuff. Jillian Shrimper. There you go. Is a senior at Rocky Mountain High School. That's the way to do it. She came in pretty raw. I mean, uh basic skills had to be developed. Uh, but she took to it so readily, a lifetime of dance helped her pick up tennis, her freshman year, it kind of correlates really similarly what I'm thinking about tennis and dance this season, she didn't lose a single regular season match on Charlie Lawrence junior's conference championship team. She really focuses on it and she's very intense sports or school. She plays the part academically. She is really good at helping other people, which is to me that's one of the hallmarks of a really smart student. She even has experience in theater and film. So there's a movie coming out this summer. I was actually an extra and it's really exciting. She's a background player. This is a surprise who deserves her close up. This is the Tom Suter Extra Effort award and it's going to Jillian Shrimper. Oh, all right. Go ahead. I, I really try hard and so it's really cool that it was recognized. But yeah, I think it's really cool. Oh.
