I concluded some time ago that a major part of success of a team, or of an individual, has a great deal to do with the intangible qualities possessed.

I believe those concepts are the essence of a good player, team, coach, or individual in any capacity in life.— Dick Bennett

I would like to say to anyone who finds themselves in a predicament similar to young Adrianna's, it is important to seek help from someone you can trust. Even though she had reservations discussing her problems with others, there is nothing shameful in seeking guidance for problems you or someone you know may be having.
