About: When Sarah got involved with Special Olympics, this was her first time participating in any sort of sports.  Here's her record so far:  2006, Individual Soccer Skills:  1st place at County, 1st place at Area, and Silver medal at State.  2007, Soccer Team: 1st place at County, 1st place at Area, and Bronze medals at State.  Now she wants to try her hand at bowling, swimming, maybe tennis, and - if we could only get the program going here in Duval - equestrian events. She enjoys swimming, playing with her dogs, computer games, dancing, and interacting with people. Sarah’s older brother and father are both assistant coaches.
