The list of superlatives used to describe Clarke County High School senior Taylor Warner is about a mile long. But if you're looking for just one word to describe Warner, winner sums it up best.
"Her attitude is infectious, the other kids really pick up on it," Clarke County Girls Basketball Coach Tim Lawrence said. "As a coach you love to coach someone like that."
Taylor's winning attitude extends past the basketball court, and into the classroom where she holds a 4.179 GPA.
"I'm hard on myself and if I don't perform to my potential I get mad at myself just because I know I can do better, and I think that translates into the classroom," Warner said.
After a tough loss in the state finals a year ago a Hollywood ending awaited Taylor in her senior year, and going out on top is exactly what Warner wanted and got, leading her team to the Virginia Group A State Championship.
"It makes it more fun to win, being with all the girls, everyone is so fun to be around, I just love the experience." Warner added.
Congratulations to Taylor Warner for being named TV3 Winchester's Student Athlete of the Week.
