- GR: If you could go back and change one thing in your life, would you?
KC: No, because I live life with no regrets.

GR: If you could time travel, what decade would to travel to?
KC: I'd probably go to the early 80's, just because that's when my grandma and uncle died, and I would've liked to have met them.

GR: Do you have a favorite song or artist?
KC: I like everything from country to rap.

GR: Your brother is a football player at Lake Forest. Would you say your family rooted more for the Bears or Bulls growing up?
KC: I would say more Bulls, because we both played basketball but then he decided to focus on football later on.

KC: "Don't settle for being average- if it was easy everyone would do it."

KC: Well, I don't have a car right now so any car would be a dream car. But, I'd have to say a Hummer.

GR: Pizza or cheeseburger?
KC: Depends on the day... today, cheeseburger.

GR: Who would you say you look up to most on the team?
KC: I would have to say Megan McCracken. We have the same work ethic and we're captains together.

GR: Water or Gatorade?
KC: Water
