Flieg is a former Ste. Genevieve High School track and field all-state athlete and MSHSAA javelin state champion in 2021 as she helped the Lady Dragons also win the state team title. She is the youngest child and only daughter of Jason and Julie Flieg, the retiring Ste. Genevieve R-2 Schools Superintendent.
