Dr. Waldron grew up in Minnesota playing sports, including basketball, cross country, track, racquetball, and any other sport or physical activity she could. Her high school basketball team (St. John's Prep) broke a 35 game losing streak her sophomore year. Her team continued to improve and won first-round district games her junior and senior year.
