What a year for Hillcrest Girls Basketball!

Under Head Coach Hannah Clark, the Comets delivered the most successful season in program history, recording the most wins ever, earning the first State Tournament appearance in school history, and finishing 4th in Class A.

Hillcrest opened the state tournament with a commanding 83–55 win over NRHEG, battled top-ranked Mountain Iron-Buhl, and closed the weekend with a fourth-place finish after a hard-fought game against Central Minnesota Christian.

Along the way, Elin Retzlaff reached 1,000 career points on the floor of Williams Arena and earned All-Tournament Team honors, while Elsa Retzlaff, Elin Retzlaff, and Ella Knutson were named All-Conference, and Aaveah Stender earned Second Team All-Conference recognition.

But the lasting legacy of this team goes beyond the scoreboard. All season long, the Comets made it a habit to pray for every opponent they faced, a reminder that the impact of this team will last far longer than the final buzzer.

A Lasting Impact | Stories from off the court

To our fans: People noticed.
You showed up.
You looked the part.
You sounded the part.
You represented well.
You cheered loud when we were up, and when we were down you got even louder—keeping the energy high, and hyping up our girls!
You were encouraging.
You were respectful.
And when other teams tried to throw taunts your way, you stayed focused on what mattered most: our Comets.
Your presence didn’t go unnoticed. Several adults shared with the Hillcrest community how invested our student section was. One venue’s onsite manager even shared that the Hillcrest student section was the most encouraging and respectful group they saw.
Thank you, Comet Nation, for showing up and representing so well. ❤️🖤🤍☄️🏀
