Tara has a passion for the sport, raising three boys and married to a life long coach she has excelled at the sport she loves most!
Tara's time with the Blaze started during COVID and she was dilligent getting her body ready to play competitive football. She played her first year on the team as a tackle and her season was cut short due to injury. She tried her best to play through it earning the respect and admiration of both players and coaches alike. She came back with a vengeance and became the starting tackle during the championship season. With the retirement of the longtime center, Tara took on the leadership role on the offensive line and made the change to become the teams center. Her tireless efforts on and off the field have impressed the coaching staff and lead the team to trust her as the player in the middle of the line.
