"LaShawn inhaled deeply and leaned into her stretch. She would hold it for 90 seconds: a routine she followed before every competition. But this was the final county tournament. Was she ready? Were the countless backflips she did every morning at 5 a.m. for the past nine months going to pay off? Leaning out of the stretch, she stood and walked purposefully to the door of the gym."

LaShawn is a dedicated athlete who has been preparing for this competition for a long time, and she is determined to do her best.
I can infer that LaShawn is a very determined person based off of the information that she did countless back-flips every morning at 5 a.m. for the past nine months. I can also infer that she is slightly unsure about how she will preform in the final county tournament, but brushes it off as she finishes her stretch.
