Q&A with Tara: Athletic goal at U of L is to work hard and become a starter... Post-college ambition is to be successful... Two reasons she chose U of L are athletics and academic support... Best moment of her athletic career is beating her rival school St. Mary's as a freshman and scoring a goal... Best advice she has ever received is to never give up... What she likes most about Louisville is the people... Would pick Kate Hudson to play her in a movie about her life... After her U of L career is over, she would like to be remembered as a hard worker... Advice she would give a young player is to never give up and always play hard... Something about her that most people would be surprised to know is that she gets angry even though she seems happy all the time... Athlete she admires most is Santana Moss... Hobbies and outside interests are going to the beach and hanging out with friends and family... Pre-game ritual is to re-tie her stick and shoes right before the game starts... Her biggest pet peeve is people asking too many questions... Title story of her life would be Dreams Happen... Proudest moment of her life was being offi cially accepted in to the University of Louisville... Earliest sports memory is playing lacrosse in second grade and going to the fi rst practice with a boys stick... Role models are her mom and dad.
