We are squeezing the heck out of this fruit. As we mentioned in the previous two editions. Winter ends on March 20, so it is still technically winter here in the United States. Women's sports are heading in a great direction. With social media, women are able to provide awareness about their sports, training, eating and anything else in their daily lives. We are continuing our celebration of these great athletes and their discipline to be great on the field, while looking and feeling just as great off of it. Welcome to the fifth installment of The Hottest Winter Bods in Women's Sports of 2021.

Lailah Elliott

This former Ohio State multi-event athlete has supermodel beauty. As a high school athlete Lailah Elliott was a two-sport star at John Burroughs School in St. Louis, Missouri. She was a hooper and a track athlete.

While at Ohio State she competed in the heptathlon, pentathlon as well as open events such as the javelin throw, long jump, 60-meter hurdles, 100-meter hurdles, shot put, high jump, 60-meter dash and the 1,600-meter relay. Needless to say, Elliott was a very busy Buckeye.

Diamond Battles

A five-foot-eight guard from Winter Haven, Florida, Diamond Battles laces her basketball shoes up for the University of Central Florida. This year was her junior season and she averaged career highs with 9.4 points and 4.1 assists per game. She led her team in assists as well as steals taking the ball 2.4 times per game from her opponents. The gorgeous guard brings style along with grit to the basketball court. Battles' best game of the season came against Virginia when she posted 17 points, seven assists, five steals, one block and turned the ball over on just one occasion. She had another strong performance against Cincinnati with 14 points, five assists, three steals and one turnover. She helped lead her team to a 16-4 record which it will continue to build on in the NCAA Tournament as it faces Northwestern in the first round next week.

Naja Christmas

Formerly a football star for the Los Angeles Temptation in the Legends Football League, Naja Christmas is now a trainers and rehab specialist. She uses her Instagram page to advocate for healthy life choices, mental health and stability, which is admirable. She could just rest on her beauty like many do, but Christmas has something to say, so she does. On one of her videos she encourages her followers by saying, "I love you, let's start with that and I think this is a message you need to hear. The person holding you back is you. Stop immobilizing yourself in fear. Stop being fearful ..." She motivates her spectators to believe in themselves and to be the best that they are capable of being.

Mangela Ngandjui

Norfolk State forward Mangela Nganjui just wrapped up her most productive collegiate season. The five-foot-11 senior, averaged 11.4 points, 9.3 rebounds and 2.3 steals per game. Her best performance of the year came on a 16-point, 14-rebound effort against MEAC champ North Carolina A&T. She posted four double-doubles this season. Her best rebounding tally was a game where she yanked down 17 boards, also against North Carolina A&T. Nganjui flirted with a triple double when she scored 13 points, grabbed eight rebounds and blocked a season's best six shots against North Carolina Central.

Salina de la Renta

Salina de la Renta is not just a pro wrestler. Nothing would be wrong if that was all she did but she does so much more. As far as we know, she is the first Latina executive producer on a pro wrestling show. She is also the first Spanish speaking female commentator. Along with that, the charismatic and ambitious performer is also an entrepreneur and model. The native of Carolina, Puerto Rico just turned 24, last month.
