Sarah has always been an athlete. Her dad put her on her first soccer team when she was three and since then has always been in love with the sport. Her mom was a single mom and so to keep the kids busy after school Sarah signed up for every sport her school offered, up until 8th grade but when she got to High School, she found her true love, running.
As a Semi-state cross country runner Sarah was known for her Pep talks before races. When she got to college she said good buy to sports but found running again after losing her brother in 2010. Since then she has become an ambassador the Houston Marathon and now serves as the in Stadium announcer for the Houston Dash.
“The game will change but if you love it, you’ll find a way to stay in it”.

The Minnesota Vikings have acquired running back Cam Akers in a trade for the second straight year, agreeing Tuesday to send a late draft pick to the Houston Texans for more depth at the position.
The deal, which was contingent on Akers passing a physical exam, has the Vikings sending a conditional sixth-round pick in the 2026 draft to the Texans for Akers and a conditional seventh-round pick in the 2026 draft.
Akers, who was a second-round draft pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2020 when current Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell was the offensive coordinator there, came to the Vikings in a deal with the Rams on Sept. 20, 2023. He had 138 rushing yards and 70 receiving yards in six games before suffering a season-ending Achilles tendon tear.
Akers signed with the Texans this year after considering a return to the Vikings. He had 147 rushing yards and 16 receiving yards in five games, helping fill in for the injured Joe Mixon.
Akers has 1,728 rushing yards and 336 receiving yards in five NFL seasons. He led the league with 67 rushing attempts during the 2021 postseason while helping the Rams to a Super Bowl title.
The Vikings could be without starting running back Aaron Jones Sr. this week after he hurt his hip in the previous game. Ty Chandler is next in line.
