She takes after her older sister, Brielle (Purdue), in terms of talent, if not more so, which earned her District 20-5A MVP honors for the second-straight year in 2023.
Now, Warren and Fulshear will be ascending to the Class 6A level this Fall, with the intention of building upon their third-place finish at State a year ago, and look to make their presence felt in their new conference.
We caught up with the Chargers super-star, as she prepares for her final campaign, before she takes her talents to Wake Forest in the foreseeable future.
…
VYPE: What’s the mindset for you and Fulshear, as the team moves up to play against 6A competition?
WARREN: “For the team, it’s for sure to go back to State. But overall, we can’t get complacent, while keeping in mind that people know we’re good and they want to beat us. So we need to make sure that we’re always pushing each other, whether that’s in practice, in the weight room, etc.
Personally, my mindset would be to have an even better year and bring out the best in myself from past seasons. I intend to beat our program records and to set new ones, while having more of a voice on the court. I want to also connect individually with everyone, and not just on my team, but in the program as a whole.”
VYPE: What are you most excited about to play for Wake Forest after you graduate?
WARREN: “To mature and learn more about myself as a person and player. I hope to make new connections and create an even bigger name for myself. I have major goals for myself when I get there, and I plan to accomplish all of them over time.”
VYPE: If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?
WARREN: “Maldives, because I always see reels of people on vacation there, and it looks very relaxing and beautiful overall. Or, I would go to Japan because of the food, activities, and sights.”
VYPE: What’s your go-to pregame and postgame meal?
WARREN: “Pregame would have to be apple cinnamon oatmeal and orange juice, and maybe a Chobani yogurt. For postgame, maybe a smoothie or a burger, whatever I’m feeling at the moment. But it would have to be one of the two ha ha.”
VYPE: If you could give your younger self some advice, what would you say to her?
WARREN: “I’d tell myself to stay consistent and celebrate later, because I feel that a couple moments in my life could have gone slightly differently if I just didn’t get too relaxed. Instead of taking a ‘small break’ I would remain vigilant with what I was doing and then enjoy the achievement later rather than sooner. In doing so, I could accomplish even more.”
