If you were fortunate enough to watch this group play, talk with one of them about the season, be a part of the annual scavenger hunt, or simply have been following us on here, you know (and likely felt) how special this team is. Something about this year just felt… different — in the best way possible. Our goals were high. Our expectations were high. Our passion for the game, competing, and growing were the highest I’ve seen in a long time.🖤
•
Growth. Accountability. Teamwork. Respect. Integrity.
•
Those were our team values this year. This team took those values in to each and every practice and game and it showed. We finished 14-8 on the year — the most wins for the program since the 2015 season. That couldn’t have been accomplished without the growth of each and every one of these girls. The level of accountability they held themselves to all season long. The teamwork built through all the bonding events, dinners, and inside jokes. The respect they show each other, the game, the community, and themselves. The level of integrity each one of these girls holds themselves to as young women, student-athletes, and leaders within our community.
•
Our season may have ended sooner than we would have liked and the number of tears shed in the last 24 hours were great. But nothing can take away the amazing things we accomplished this year.💛🐾 Until next year…
