Outside the lines: Meet the Mauk twins
Freshmen Stefanie and Rachel Mauk are twin sisters from Lima, Ohio, and were three-time first-team all-conference honorees at Bath High School.
John Evans: When you are not practicing and not thinking about basketball, what would you say you like to do in your spare time?
Stefanie Mauk: I like to just hang out with friends and watch movies. That’s it, pretty much.
Rachel Mauk: I like to hang out with friends and relax when I get a chance. I am on Facebook a lot.
JE: What is your favorite kind of music to listen to?
SM: I love country. I am a huge Taylor Swift fan, so that is probably my favorite music.
RM: Same thing, yeah. Taylor Swift.
JE: Do you both tend to like the same things?
SM: Yup.
RM: Pretty Much.
JE: What about you favorite kind of food to eat?
SM: My favorite food is pasta, I love spaghetti.
RM: My favorite food is probably fettuccini alfredo with shrimp.
JE: What would you say is the one thing that distinguishes you two from each other?
SM: I would say that I am left-handed and Rachel is right-handed, and that is probably our biggest difference.
RM: If you get to know us, I would say the biggest difference is that I am more outgoing than Stefanie. She is more of a home-body type.
JE: Are there any goals you have for the future, whether it is basketball or anything else?
SM: I would love to win a MAC Championship and get an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. I just think that would be an awesome opportunity to have.
RM: I agree and, looking beyond college, graduating with a good degree and move back to my hometown in Lima, Ohio.
