Day 17 (Monday, August 25, 2014):

Liz Fortado

Junior | OPP | 6-2

Flower Mound, Texas (Marcus HS)

 

Q: What movie do you know every line of dialogue?

Fortado: I know every line of dialogue from She’s the Man and I figured that out this weekend when it came on.

 

Q: Would you rather go to a movie OR dinner by yourself?

Fortado: I think I’d rather go to dinner because I don’t like to talk when I eat.

 

Q: What’s the most interesting/funniest account you follow on Twitter?

Fortado: I’m not on Twitter that much but when I am I really like Fat Amy’s (from Pitch Perfect) account.

 

Q: What’s the one thing you have to do before each match?

Fortado: I have to braid my hair and listen to music on my phone.

 

Q: What was your favorite memory from Europe/this summer?

Fortado: My favorite memory is doing the ropes course. I was the first one to swing and went upside down. It freaked everybody out. That was a lot of fun!

 

Q: What was the last selfie you took?

Fortado: The last selfie I took was Saturday with Adrien (Wohlschlaeger) and Monica (Bollinger). I was taking a creeper picture where they were in the background not paying attention.

 

Q: What was your favorite sports team growing up?

Fortado: In high school, we had to do a warm-up lap before the match. It was our Pink Match in front of a packed house and I tripped myself and ended up knocking out five girls behind me. We ended up in a big pile
