As the school year winds down, Weaver is preparing for her next steps. The four-sport athlete and the school's Athena Award winner will head this fall to Gustavus Adolphus, where she will compete in running and Nordic skiing, her favorite sport.
Q: What about Nordic skiing makes it your favorite?
A: The team is very close, and I really like our coaches' coaching style. She cares about the team a lot. There are a lot of times when she invites us to her house and we do a lot of team bonding. She brings us to Yellowstone every year to train, and that's really fun.
Q: What are some of your best memories from those trips?
A: One year we did a six-hour ski, and that was in 10th grade, and then every year after that, we've tried to beat that time and go just a little bit further.
Q: How do you balance all your sports with what you need to do academically?
A: I know that right after practice, I need to go home and I only have a certain amount of time. I think that I actually am more focused during sports seasons because I have such a strict time schedule.
Q: Do you have any goals for the remainder of this track season?
