VYPE: How did you get into both sports? They are so different.
ALLISON: “My Mom and I started running little 5K fund-raisers when I was like seven-years-old. When I got to TWCA, I just started running competitively. I fight with myself during every race. It’s a constant battle of not burning out... speeding up and slowing down. My Dad played baseball and got me into the sport early. I love to have the ball in my hand on the mound.”
VYPE: How does cross country help you in baseball?
ALLISON: "Obviously, it keeps me in shape, but the running motion with my arms really helps my shoulders stay healthy."
VYPE: What do you like to do outside of sports?
ALLISON: “I have been involved in Boy Scouts and the Venture Crew all my life. I love camping and I’m also on a team that competes in the Scholastic Action Shooting Program (SASP). I’ve gotten pretty good. It’s a competition where we shoot at steel targets while being timed."
VYPE: What is your plan for the future after TWCA?
ALLISON: “I want to play baseball at LeTourneau University. I really like the school. I love working with my hands and want to get into something like being a mechanic. I love to build and fix things.”
VYPE: What is your favorite movie?
ALLISON: “I really like the Mission Impossible movies.”
VYPE: You came to TWCA as a sophomore and as a home-schooler. How was the transition?
ALLISON: “It’s been great. The academics are much tougher, but the best part is the social aspect. Just meeting and hanging out with people has been the greatest part of the move. I’ve learned so much from my coaches, teachers and new friends. It’s been so much more fun and I’ve grown so much.”
VYPE: What has been your childhood dream?
ALLISON: “I’ve always wanted to fly planes.”
