“We talk about family a lot, and all the girls have bought in. We are truly one big family. The girls improved tremendously throughout the year, both individually and as a team. Our eighth-graders play really well together, each taking on an individual and important team role. This group of girls was so fun to coach and a true joy to be around. They worked hard, loved one another, and fought hard every single game. I am so proud of all of them.”
