LARAMIE, Wyo. (Nov. 9, 2018) – Throughout the Cowgirl volleyball conference season, GoWyo.com will feature Q&A's with the Wyoming volleyball team. Today: junior outside hitter Tara Traphagan.
 
What made you want to come to Wyoming?
I just really liked the atmosphere here. It's a small community and the only four year in Wyoming. It kind of makes it feel like home. It's big enough where you have everything that you need, but it's small enough to where it's a very tightly-knit community. I really liked that.
 
Favorite sport outside of volleyball?
Definitely basketball. I played it in high school and I loved it.
 
Do you have any hidden talents?
I play the saxophone.
 
If you could pick one superpower, what would it be and what would you use it for?
I would definitely choose flying because it's a way to get from place to place pretty easily. I hate traffic so that would be a good way to avoid that.
 
If you could pick one famous person to meet, who would it be?
Morgan Freeman.
 
What is your go-to pregame music?
Rap or R&B, definitely. Something to get you hyped up.
 
What is your biggest fear?
Spiders for sure.
 
What is your favorite meal?
My mom makes some really good stuff at home, so probably chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and gravy. Just a hearty meal.
 
Dogs or cats?
I can't pick. My dad's a vet so I grew up with both and love both.
