Elene Delle Donne: Attitude On The Court And Off It

       Elena Delle Donne is a famous WNBA basketball player, she is also my sports idol.
       In my opinion, Elena is very committed towards basketball.  In high school she lead her team to four state championships!  In college she led Delaware to back-to-back conference titles and two undefeated conference seasons. She also took her team to the Sweet 16, completing the best season in school history.  She even joined Team USA and competed in the World University Games in China.  While she was there, she earned a gold medal!  There's also her WNBA career.  She has been selected second overall by the Chicago Sky, been named rookie of the year, and has been player of the week.  I can definitely see more titles in her future.
        Off the court, Elena gives back by raising awareness about different causes and giving many hope and exhilaration.  She graduated with a degree in human services.  She adores helping children with special needs.  She also likes raising awareness for Lyme disease. She has actually been battling this disease ever since 2008.
        Elena Delle Donne is a stupendous role model for me and people everywhere.
