The 18-year-old athlete is headed off to college soon!

“I’ve heard so many incredible things about college and I’ve given up so much for this experience,” Missy shared with People. “I’m so looking forward to it.”

She added about moving to California to attend University of California, Berkeley: “I’m just going to go there as Missy the freshman, you know? Like every other freshman going there … to have the time of my life.”
