Forget your ol’ Ken Griffey Jr. or Mark McGuire trading cards — the only novelty sports memorabilia that matters is a certain “Awkward” star’s hoops headshot.
Ashley Rickards, who plays the show’s discomfort-prone blogger Jenna Hamilton, shared some photos from the darkened corners of her attic earlier this week, and in honor of #TBT, we’re giving her the credit she oh-so-rightfully deserves.
First things first: obligatory team sports picture.

“Idk what you all were doing in 2001 but I was killing it on the court. #Awkward”, Ashley tweeted with the Instagram photo above. The delicate-yet-intense handling of the ball? The watch that was likely purchased from Sports Authority? Drawstring shorts? Just too, too good.
And Ash made sure the hits kept comin’.

“This one is actually kind of adorable. I still feel like that spazzy little girl though,” she captioned another very smiley, tweeny pic. A fellow former metal-mouth! Wonder if she had speech-impeding headgear? We feel closer to her already…
+ Do you have a dusted-over sports shot that rivals Ash’s? Tell us which of your old images makes you squirm, and stay tuned for the next “Awkward” episode Tuesday night at 10/9c!
