EXCLUSIVE: The 2024 Paris Olympics are two years, but that's right around the corner for hometown hopefuls like Frisco's Skye Blakely.
Skye Blakely of Frisco is one of them.
“I had a surgery last year and I feel like that motivated me and pushed me to be even better and to come back faster and stronger, so I think I totally proved that this year,” said Blakely. “It was just supposed to be like for fun,” said Blakely, who explained it was her sister who inspired her to join her first team.“I love my sister to death and she was my first role model, you know. I always wanted to be like her and do what she was doing,” she said.“It just took off from there you know, every year, I was just building more and more skills and you know, to be at this level was always my dream,” said Blakely, who’s now a five-time U.S. National team member.
