My father was a really good athlete, so his pop-ups really were sky high. Eventually I learned how to judge them properly and catch them well. It was great training for when I started to play on teams, which I did all through school.

I was just different. When the other kids gravitated to football or basketball, I went fishing and skating. I was into trapping animals, pheasants and squirrels. Not only was I trapper, I was a taxidermist.

I grew six, seven inches in junior year of high school, so I played guard my whole life growing up. So I think there's where I got my skill set from.

I played small forward on the basketball team. I also ran the 300 hurdles.

You hear peewee coaches teaching the 'trap'. What the heck are we doing teaching the 'trap'? Let the kids go, let them have fun; that's how you improve.

I was a roving guard on the Lowell Hebrew Community Center's girls' basketball team all through high school. My specialty was stealing the ball, but my only shot was a lay-up.

I was captain of the volleyball team and the basketball team, and I ran track.

With all the traveling and promotion I've been doing for 'Murderball,' its been difficult keeping up with my rugby training.

When I was 7, my dad asked his friend to teach me. I played my first tournament competition when I was 8. I remember I shot around 125.
