Athlete of the Week: Annissia Woods

Senior

Women’s Basketball

What has motivated you the most this season?

Coming back from an ACL surgery has motivated me, but going to the national tournament has been the main objective for years. I love Lizzie Hoffa, AJ Lewis, Sara Sticklen, Kelli Rinehart and Catie Fletcher’s work ethic because they push me to become better.

What are you looking forward to for the remainder of your season?

Winning the conference tournament and competing at nationals.

What are your plans after graduation? 

After graduating I plan on going to graduate school for nutrition.

What is a memorable moment you have from being on the basketball team?

Throughout my career, going to Haiti has to be my best memory. We went there to serve, but they ended up teaching us more than we could have taught them.

What is something you have learned about yourself while being at Asbury?

I have learned too many things. Particularly, I have discovered the importance of having great leadership to learn from, supportive friends, faith, and diligence.
