Stephen Curry Golden State Warriors jerseys and Delias favorite basketball shoes are hung up on the walls beside her. "When I was twelve years old my mom took me out of the baseball league that I was in...when I got taken out I didn’t have anything to do and we had a basketball court at our house you know so...when I actually started getting serious my brother, he showed me a video of Stephen Curry,” says Delia. “When I saw him play, I don’t know, It's like I got attached very quickly...and I started to teach myself how to play.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Delia attends her AP English class at Rochester Prep High School. Delia is a senior at Rochester Prep and this is her first year being fully in person since her sophomore year in 2020. On top of that shift, Delia is starting to apply to multiple colleges at school such as Rochester Institute of Technology, Brockport, Geneseo, University at Buffalo, Columbia, Daemen, Rice, St. John Fisher, and Syracuse, being her top choice. Delia misses the comfort of being an underclassman and not having to worry about all these big decisions. "Starting off as a senior is not that easy," says Delia. "Just knowing that I wasn’t a senior it kind of put me, like, in comfort because like, ‘This isn't your last ride yet. You still have more time,’ you know?"</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Delia attends a pre-season training session for basketball with coach Jabari Noel at Rochester Prep Middle School Brooks campus. Delia deals with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression and basketball acts as a stress reliever for her. “I know that depression and anxiety runs in our family. It can change like one day something won't trigger me and the next day it just depends,” says Delia. "Basketball is my life like, basketball like- even just saying it like I have this feeling in my body just now like...If I could I would put basketball over school, basketball over everything."</image:caption>

Delia is still dealing with the impact of losing her previous boyfriend of two years during the pandemic. "We didn't survive the pandemic," says Delia. "I just felt like it was easy to lose feelings for each other. So I feel like the pandemic really took him away from me, which sucks because he wasn't just my boyfriend he was actually like my best friend."</image:caption>

Delia and Dani were shopping for clothes to wear during spirit week at their school. Spirit week is the only time Rochester Prep students do not have to wear their uniform. "The school likes to paint a picture that it’s such a good school and every kid is happy and stuff. If you see the billboard every kid is smiling," says Delia. "A lot of people that I’m not close with personally has mental health issues and anxiety and depression. And I think part of that is because Rochester Prep really really likes to focus on test scores and making us look good rather than us being happy. It felt like a prison."</image:caption>
