April 2016 Athlete of the Month

For April, we are awarding Athlete of the Month to someone who has caught the coaches’ eyes lately.  She has been a member for quite a while now and has shown a lot of progress through her dedication and trust in the system.  Recently this year, she participated in her first competition.  She wasn’t going to sign up for the Open, but when her boyfriend did it without her knowledge, she stepped up and attempted to complete every WOD as prescribed.  She will be representing Industrial Athletics again on May 21 at another local competition.  She is always positive, always encouraging, and does her best to participate in social events.  The April 2016 Athlete of the Month is:
