The 2021 squad has a lot of depth with a strong senior class of leaders and a young, fresh, talented freshman class already proving themselves. Over the pandemic, the girls were working out, zooming, and buddying up with incoming Freshman to help facilitate bonding and team building early on. This team’s dynamic is positive and encouraging and they have handled the past year with such grace, they are just happy to be able to play together again!”
