For Daniel Mortensen, it’s hard to remember a time in his life when his sister wasn’t beaming with positivity.
“She’s always been smiling,” said Daniel Mortensen, a senior forward for Division II Barry University.
Sarah Mortensen, a junior forward on the University of Miami women’s basketball team, didn’t just have an ever-present grin as a child she also had a talent for basketball. Her parents, Pia and René, both played the sport at the semi-professional level in their home country of Denmark, and they passed on their love of the game to their children.
“We’ve always been close,” Daniel said.
