Sports have had a huge impact on Aidan Crotty’s life. She claims, “They have taught me to be disciplined, more outgoing and confident.” In fact, Aidan has met some of her best friends through sports like softball. Aidan participates in softball because “it is a fun, competitive game.” She saw her older sisters play the sport and wanted to join the team!

Speaking of family, her relatives do play a major role in her life. Aidan’s parents’ advice has helped her more times than one. Aidan’s father tells her, “Don’t sweat the small stuff. Really, it’s all small stuff.” In a similar fashion, her mother tells Aidan every day, “Be good, be kind, be grateful.” These pieces of advice have molded Aidan into an “outgoing, courageous, compassionate, determined, and funny” gal.

Finally, here is the origin story of Aidan Crotty’s classic wolf shirt. Sean, Aidan’s sister, ordered the wolf shirt online and left it at the Crotty family house. The following Wednesday, Aidan wore the shirt to school and the rest is history. She reveals, “I decided to make it my thing. I continued to buy more and now, I think I have eight or nine shirts.” Aidan has worn one of these shirts every Wednesday since then.
