Heather Summy
Female: Raquel Green
Q: What is your major?
A: “I am majoring in History because I am a critical thinker. I am a very detail-oriented person and like to think outside of the box. My ideal job would be to travel the world and do research related to African-American history.”
Q: How long have you been playing basketball?
A: “I started playing when I was 13, in sixth grade.”
Q: How did you become involved with basketball?
A: “I grew up in a city, so basketball was always everywhere. I also lived right beside a basketball court, so every day when I went outside it was right there. Playing sports runs in my family, but I am the first female to play basketball.”
Q: What has been the highlight of your season (so far)?
A: “Beating California University was the highlight of my season. We lost to them three games in a row during the playoffs last year, so I was glad to beat them this season.”
Q: What are you looking forward to for the remainder of the season?
A: “My goal is that we will not only be able to make it farther than we did last year, but to also try and win PSAC.”
Q: Besides playing basketball, how do you spend your free time?
A: “In my free time I enjoy relaxing, traveling, and spending time with my family. I especially like traveling with my family. Somewhere I’ve always wanted to go is London and I am hoping to go there after graduation.”
Q: Do you follow basketball professionally?
A: “Not really, it is very seldom that I watch professional basketball, but I do sometimes watch men’s college basketball. I don’t necessarily have a favorite team; I just like to watch good games.”
Q: Who is your favorite player?
A: “I don’t have a current favorite player, but a past player and someone I admire was my middle school AAU coach, Yolanda Laney. She was like a second mother to me because she not only helped me on the court, but off the court as well. She made sure I kept up with my school work and taught me things other than just basketball, like important life lessons.”
Q: What do you plan to do after you graduate?
A: “Right after I graduate from Millersville in the spring, I plan on going to graduate school. I would like to go to either Temple or Howard University for my masters in either Sports Management or History.”

Q: What is your major?

Q: How long have you been playing baseball?
A: “I’ve been playing for as long as I can remember. I started playing t-ball in elementary school and I have been playing ever since then.”
Q: How did you become involved with baseball?
A: “My dad tried to keep me and all my brothers active. He never pushed me towards one sport, but I enjoyed baseball so I continued with it. I tired just about every sport but in high school I ended up choosing to stick with baseball and basketball.”
Q: What has been the highlight of your season (so far)?
A: “It’s still really early in the season, so it’s hard to tell what will end up happening. Winning this past weekend really helped and definitely boosts our morale from losing the prior weekend.”
Q: What are you looking forward to in the remainder of the season?
A: “The team has really matured after our first weekend and we have a lot of talent back, so I have high hopes for this season. Right now we are focusing on getting into our PSAC games and are just going to take it game by game. I’m hoping we will win PSAC again, like we did two years ago, and then try our best to make it to regionals.”
Q: Besides playing baseball, how do you spend your free time?
A: “When I’m not playing baseball I spend my time studying and hanging out with friends. I normally don’t have too much free time so I spend most of it just relaxing and getting sleep.”

A: “Yes, I have always been a baseball fan. I really enjoy watching the Phillies.”
Q: Who is your favorite player?

Q: What do you plan to do after you graduate?
A: “I am taking a constitutional law class right now and really enjoy it, so I am thinking about going to law school after I graduate from Millersville. I’m planning on taking a year off to study for the LSAT and find a job to help build my resume before pursuing law school.”
