I totally forgot about Katelyn Anton. She yoyo’d years ago and did fairly well in different competitions between like 2005-2008. I don’t think she plays anymore though? I could be wrong. ---

I could be wrong. I remember her name but it was in my noob years… I haven’t heard anything about her in the last several years so I’m assuming she quit. ---

I’ve experienced that when you’re involved in certain hobbies with such a low female representation you tend to see that a lot of the female players actively seek each other out. Sometimes it’s easier to converse with those you can relate to on many levels. ---
