Young, determined and ready to do whatever it took in order to accomplish her goals.  Ida Andersson was in her senior year of high school and needed to increase her SAT score.  All of the testing centers in Sweden were full so she booked a flight to Poland, took the test in an old gymnasium and got back on the plane, all by herself.  She succeeded in raising her test score which allowed her to accept a Division I college scholarship.  She spent four years in the U.S., experienced two different universities, graduated with a degree in Psychology and is now starting a professional basketball career in Spain.  Through thick and thin, Ida toughed it out, and looking back on her experience says she'd do it all again, without a doubt.
