Marin runs the risk of taking home puppies each time she picks up a volunteer shift at the Animal Humane Society. At home, she already has two dogs, one of which weighs in at twice her size. The other, Bauer, may clue you into her love of hockey. You can frequently find Marin behind the video cam taking game footage for BSM’s Boys’ Hockey Team. If she’s not freezing at the rink, she’s getting chalky at the gym in preparation for her tenth competitive gymnastics season. Afterward, she is likely to settle in with a mug of Moose Tracks ice cream while watching a treasure-hunting or action movie; National Treasure is her favorite, but Sahara is a close second.
