When asked how she thought their season went Senior Captain, Maddie Clouse said “The season went good but there were a couple of downsides, we didn’t get to go on our winter break trip to Arizona due to weather and I got hurt in our last league game and couldn’t play in the first playoff game.” She mentioned that her favorite memory from the season was traveling with the team up north, even though they lost it was a lot of fun spending time with everybody. Junior Starter, Claire Smith says “I think the season went pretty well, being 2nd in our league was awesome and something not many people or teams saw coming! I am proud of us and how far we got.” She also talked about how most of the team was seniors and it’s going to be very different next season.

As for next season, he hopes to build on what they’ve done this year. He hopes to have a successful next season and make it farther in the playoffs than this season.
