PERSONAL - Daughter of Bill and Donna Gethard... Has yet to declare a major... If she could play another sport at Maryland, she'd consider soccer... Pretended to be Babe Ruth as a kid playing sports... Came to Maryland for the atmosphere and selected Maryland over Clemson, Temple and Monmouth... Would cast Sandra Bullock in a movie of her life... Non-sports heroes are her parents.
