Love her state plaque this year 
Four year Sweep!!
Av was honored at the High School the Monday after state !!

The team banquet was SO BITTER SWEET!!
Coachie whom inspired it all and believed she had what it took - Av dove off a board for the VERY first time ever 1-16-12 in front of him to see if she would like it (she was much shorter then him then) the rest is now written in NHS history with these two.  Not only did this man take in a little squirt and build her into becoming an AMAZING diver, but unbeknown to him he was the one and only constant male figure other than her father in her life.  Thank you Coachie for being there for Av through thick n thin, good n bad and being another male role model she was lacking in her life.  Random tid bit of info ... Tim was the one that gave Avrianna her nickname "Av" as he didn't want to be yelling Avrianna all the time as it was too long.
Here's Coaches speech to Av ~  there may have been tears shed from my eyes

Av Captain Speech ~ Yes MY eyes watered for this one too


Once again this year Av was acknowledged at the NJSD School Board ~ NEENAH WITH PRIDE!! What kind words they had to say.....AND a standing ovation ~ WOW!  
Av's Biggest fan!!
Forever PROUD parents!!  

Av has made it official ~ She signed her commitment letter to become an Iowa Hawkeye to further her education with pre-med and her diving career.

The relationship between Av and Coach Todd started years ago when Av went to her first diving camp at Iowa back in summer of '13.  I knew she was going to love it when I left her (age 10) at the college dorms and she didn't even look back or want me to stay any longer than I had too.  Then when I picked her up a week later she was in tears because she had to leave as she found out there was another camp week and she wanted me to let her stay longer.

Osero's are going Black n Gold !!


Here is the video of the AD's speech for at the signing ~


She's a HAWKEYE!

The coaching staff and fellow teammates at Iowa have been so supportive already and believe that she will have an amazing future there
Time for CAKE!!
