My “sport” in high school (and middle school) was Math Team 
My dad was an engineering professor and took me to campus often. I liked sitting in on the classes with all the guys! I liked math and figured why not go into engineering? I find that a lot of women engineers have dads or other close relatives who were engineers.

I always say my son was born an engineer. Always was fascinated with anything mechanical or electrical. Initially it was just watching but then moved to understanding and building. He asked a ton of questions all along the way. To me (not an engineer) it was a challenge. Thank god for Google. And eventually he was on his own. I too learned a lot in the process though.
