“Although her indoor season was cut short and her outdoor season cancelled, Victoria still had a phenomenal year. I think her biggest advantage is her drive to keep improving. Even when she sets a personal best or wins a state title, she’s constantly asking how she could improve. She holds herself to an incredibly high standard and expects those around her to do the same.”
