“Kendra, mom and I truly believe in you! People will see the 3rd place, the 2nd place, and might even question it, but they don’t see and realize the climb you’ve done from the bottom. But we have,” he said.

“All the sacrifice of training 2x a day, waking up [at] 4:30 a.m., getting in land and gym workouts, to balancing school and other commitments,” he continued. “These are the seeds you’ve been planting, and you’re slowly starting to harvest.”

Doug also thanked Kendra’s coaches for “guiding and molding Kendra in becoming the best she can be.”
