Despite having been on her high school wrestling team Sera lost her first three matches at the Academy, relying too heavily on her natural strength and speed instead of technique and timing.

She eventually managed to build a very respectable record after these initial setbacks and she considers being part of the wrestling team as one of her favorite memories from her time at the academy. | While at the Academy Sera chose wrestling as her main Extracurricular Activity.
