The Gauntlet
**Then:** She quickly developed an intense dislike of Mike because of his small-town mentality but they became buds by the end of the season.
**Now:** After winning $50,000 on the *Battle of the Seasons (2002)*, Coral has been busy starting a non-profit group to supply shoes to the homeless and she volunteers as a rape crisis counselor for a women's shelter group.
**Relationships:** She's been dating someone on and off for about a year, but maintains that as of late it hasn't been "too juicy."

**Best Known For:** Stinging one-liners ("Jisela, you need to get off the ho-train."). Being a major bee-atch when she feels like it.
The Inferno
**Hottest Pre-Inferno Moment:** Rumored to have hooked up with *Road Rules* Theo, but we just don't have the proof. Damn!

**Loose Ends:** During *The Gauntlet*, team members tended to be afraid of Coral and disliked her negative attitude. Her best bud "The Miz" even voted to send her to the Gauntlet, which left this feisty chick feeling betrayed. While she didn't perform well in missions on *The Gauntlet*, don't forget she was the biggest winner on *Seasons (2002)*, taking home $50,000.
Battle of the Sexes 2
**High:** Coral plays these Challenges very well and always manages to make it to the final team -- even though everyone agrees she uses manipulation to get there. We know she's smart but she proved she's athletically strong on *The Inferno*, winning the Lifesaver several times.
**Lows:** Getting bit by a spider and being unable to complete the final mission at *The Gauntlet*, which caused her tem to lose and ultimately created a rift between her and her BFF, Mike.

**Relationships:** There are lots of people who don't like Coral but most people are too chicken to stand up to her (except Julie, who challenged her to a wrestling match). We want to see the softer side of Coral this time... a romance maybe?
Fresh Meat
Coral plays these Challenges very well and always manages to make it to the final team -- even though everyone agrees she uses manipulation to get there. We know she's smart but she proved she's athletically strong on *The Inferno*, winning the Lifesaver several times. Her getting bit by a spider and being unable to complete the final mission at *The Gauntlet* caused her to lose the final mission. There are lots of people who don't like Coral, but most people are too chicken to stand up to her (except Julie, who challenged her to a wrestling match). She's not apologizing either, and says, "I play the game the way I play the game and everybody can kiss my ass." But Abe brought out her softer side during *Sexes 2*. After a break from Challenges will we again see a softer Coral? Or will she be back and bitchier than ever?
