Closing Comment
What Tati might lack in size she definitely makes up for it in her attitude and passion for the game of volleyball. Her uncompromising work ethic (lifting, running, and stretching) and athletic rigor (attitude, focus, and discipline) surpasses many peers of her age group. The motivation and strong desire to be the best, pushes and inspires all those around her. This truly makes her the special player she is.
