>The Two Sides of Sarah Rousey
Less than a year after being diagnosed, just short of her 11th birthday, Rousey entered her first BCA Junior Nationals. "I couldn't even make a bridge," she says. Adds her dad: "Sarah was the smallest one in the tournament." She eventually placed an amazing third, beaten only by champion Kara Wroldson and runner-up Tiffany Nelson. "Tiffany was real mean to me," Sarah recalls with a chuckle. "I played her my first match and she got me on three straight fouls seven games in a row. I didn't even know what that rule was back then. She went on to beat me, 9-0. We're good friends now, but I still remind her about that match and that I'm still out for revenge." Says Tiffany: "I can't believe I did that to her. I probably just learned the three-foul rule and wanted to try it out. I know that Sarah uses [that loss] to this day as a motivation to never lose to me - and, believe it or not, it works!"
