"Olympic Trials was one of the most emotional and validating competitions of my life. I don't think most people realized the battle I had to go through to get there. I clawed my way back with everything I had. I just gave it my all—my personal best—which, to me, is always good enough."

She continued:

"And to be named to the team after all of that was surreal. Like, How did I just do that? Is this really happening? That moment, knowing I was going to be representing my country on my second Olympic team, was one of the greatest moments of my life."
