When ever PHS senior Sydney Hall needs good luck before the big game, she has a pregame pep talk with her mom. She says her mom is the biggest influence in her athletic career, because “she has been there to work with me as a coach, a mentor, a best friend, and a mom. She has never missed a game in my entire athletic career.” Her ultimate sports fantasy would be to play for Pat Summit at the University of Tennessee. (BCR photo/Jeff Schlesinger)
