Stating that she will take this experience with her to Nebraska, she said: “It’s awesome. It’s been such a high level gym to be in, and it’s something you dream of is the Olympic team and being around all of the best players in the country. It’s really cool the way that everyone communicates.
It’s very intentional and everything they do, every rep that they make, it’s very professional. So taking that back to Nebraska and then into my pro career will be really crucial. It’s awesome getting to play in the US and knowing that the next Olympics is in the US.
It’s really just makes me feel patriotic. Like I said, it’s just been awesome to be in this gym. It’s something you dream of and especially being in LA, it’s so cool,” said Bergen Reilly.
