Why Anna chose Mizzou:
"I chose Missouri because it was the best fit for me. I loved the people, campus, team and facilities. Missouri seemed to me like one big community and I wanted to be a part of it. Growing up I only heard good things about Mizzou from my dad and his friends, they would say how much they loved it and would give anything to go back there. Little did I know I would soon agree with them. The moment I stepped foot on campus I fell in love with the school. I knew that Mizzou would give me the opportunity to succeed in school, life and sports."

Anna is intelligent, spirited and always positive no matter what adversity she and the team faces."
