🟠🔵NEW PLAYER ALERT🔵🟠
Sometimes a player makes it impossible not to notice the way she shows up, puts in the work, and earns her opportunity.
For #8 Brynlee Colenda, that’s exactly what happened. 💙🧡
Over the last several weeks, Brynlee has shown up. And then she showed up again. Every practice. Every scrimmage. Every opportunity to get better. She has worked alongside our girls, listened, learned, and consistently shown a dedication to growing her game. Not because she was guaranteed anything, but simply because she wanted to put in the work and become a better player.
This weekend, Brynlee picked up with Southern Force for our tournament and gave us one more chance to see exactly what she’s been showing us all along. She’s coachable, hardworking, a great teammate, and she wants to get better. That’s exactly the kind of player we want wearing Southern Force across her chest.
But if you’ve been anywhere near our dugout lately, you already know we’re not just gaining Brynlee. We’re gaining a family that has been in the stands cheering just as loudly for every single Southern Force girl as they have for their own. They’ve supported this team wholeheartedly before it was ever officially theirs and that says a whole lot about the kind of people they are.
So this announcement feels a little different because, truthfully, Brynlee and her family have already felt like part of the SoFo family for a while.
Now we just get to make it official.
Welcome to Southern Force, #8 Brynlee Colenda. Your hard work, dedication, attitude, and willingness to keep showing up has earned you that jersey, and we couldn’t be happier to have you and your family officially on this ride with us.
Welcome to the Force, #8! 💙🧡
