If you could invite anyone in the world to dinner, whom would you invite, and what would you serve: If I could have anyone over for dinner, it would have to be my stepdad, Steve. I would cook southern food, and I would have my stepdad fix dinner. He was the only man in my life, and he died when I was young. We didn’t get that much time together.
What is your greatest athletic moment: When I went to the Pasco Invitational. I got to see what it was like to be with the “top dogs.”
