You could talk about her being the youngest to do many of these things, Youngest to win PKC internationals Kumite at 17, Youngest to win USKA Nationals & Worlds at 18(you can fact check those if you want) Youngest to be inducted into United States Karate Alliance Hall of Fame at age of 20. Before that I believe it was a tie between myself & Buster both us being inducted at age 21.
