Meet this week’s Ingles Athlete of the Week: West Henderson’s Emma Wilson
Name: Emma Wilson
School: West Henderson
Sport: Softball
How long have you been playing softball? How did you get into it?
I’ve been playing since I was six, so 12 years. I’m not exactly sure. I don’t remember how I just kind of showed up on the field and I think it was solely my father.
What do you love the most about playing softball?
The sport is very competitive. And it’s always been that way. And I’ve always been pushed by my parents and other players to keep continuing.
What lessons have high school sports taught you?
That you will go through ups and downs, but there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel. It might seem hard, and you’re always capable of what you allow yourself to be capable of.
What’s your favorite TV show or movie and why?
The Office is my favorite TV show. Because it’s just random. You can’t expect what’s going to happen next.
What would your perfect day be like?
I’d probably go hiking. I’d wake up late and then I go eat breakfast and then go hiking.
