Her teammate, senior Lauren Milne said, “I admire Gabby’s passion for soccer because she gives 100% at every practice and game. It is clear she wants to play to the best of her abilities and she always helps to bring good spirits to the team.”

Even with her hard work on the field she maintains good grades and was on A/B honor roll freshman and sophomore year as well as A honor roll throughout her junior year. Her favorite class has been AP Statistics with Mr. Anderson because of how engaging the class is. She not only has made a positive impact on her teammates/peers but also her teachers. Former Millbrook Spanish Teacher Ms. Wells was a great role model for Sadosky. She said, “When I had her class she always prioritized her students’ mental health and made sure we were all comfortable and happy in her classroom, which I greatly appreciated.”
With her success Sadosky’s main tip to help manage juggling many things is to stay organized. She uses a planner to keep track of her schedule and always keeps a good “work-life” balance and prioritizes things that make her happy. Her advice to those younger than her is to explore every interest and don’t be scared to be different.
