Faasolo (‘18) makes an attempt at a basket.

Senior Olga Faasolo has been a member of the varsity basketball team for all four years that she has attended the school. The Catalyst asked her a few questions about playing for the team.

Regarding the season, she states, “[It] is going well so far. Our team this year has improved with the help from the three freshman that made varsity their first year.”

Reflecting on her last season, Faasolo says, “I feel as if it is my last chance to show people my full potential, everything I can do on the court. This year, I want to go all out and prove to myself and others my full capability.”

She recently received an honorable mention from the San Mateo Daily Journal. She comments, “It felt like all my hard work so far had finally paid off. It felt amazing to be finally recognized for how well I play.”
