“We made sure they understood the impact they've had, not just on the scoreboard, but on the character and work ethic of every player in that locker room … They've given their all, and their dedication has paved the way for the next generation to step up and carry the torch.”

Coach Bellamy sees life lessons taking hold in her players’ lives. “The kids learn how to function in a group, celebrate each other, work together even if you’re not the best of friends. We overcame adversity early in the year with relationships and learned to put that aside and play together for the common goal.”
