This is the first time in school history that our program has won back to back championships. We are incredibly proud of the tremendous job of our student-athletes. They made adjustments today, kept positive attitudes, and stayed together all day long.
Coach Hannah Moore did an outstanding job with the girls unit, and should be equally commended for her efforts.
