Making A’s and making buckets does not come without hard work and dedication. “Sports have taught me that success doesn’t happen overnight. It


takes consistent practice, discipline, and resilience. Just like train- ing on the court, studying and preparation are what lead to excel- lence in the classroom.”


Lexi credits her parents, Leslie and Jason, for instilling the work ethic that has driven her success.  
