​

As a Las Vegas native, her love of sports began at a young age after attending countless Runnin' Rebels basketball games with her dad. Along the way, she developed a love of baseball by flipping through her great grandpa's scorebook. When she's not at a ballpark, Rylee enjoys hiking, spending time at the beach, traveling, and of course... watching more sports.
