school work done," Nelson said. "I make
sure its uninterrupted time. Academics
have always been really important to me.
My parents pushed my siblings and I to
make sure we were doing well in school.
They always said if we didn't get our home-
work done, we couldn't go to practice, so
that kind of always motivated us to get
done."
Eden said it's also always been a bal-
ancing act where school and hockey go
hand in hand ever since she grew up in
Annapolis, Maryland.
"Keeping everything in line is super
important," Eden concluded. "I feel like
when I'm doing well in school, I'm doing
well in hockey, and I'm trying to be at the
top of my game for both. I feel like every-
thing in life goes together. You don't want
to spend all your time on one thing because
academics are so crucial for the future and
gaining that knowledge right now is super
important to me."
