Assistant Coach's Corner
Proud of how hard are young men fought tonight. 5 games in 15 days is brutal, but they fought through and finished strong. 5-3, county Champs, and a wonderful group of young men. I'm proud to be their Coach, and even more proud of them. A great season, and I'm already missing not having practice tomorrow. How sweet it is. Go Big Red.
