“This season has been a tough one,” said Coach Nicole Cain. “Between canceled games because of COVID-19 and not being able to practice as much as we would have liked. The girls were always cheerful and smiling. I have enjoyed coaching them this year and I am hopeful for the future. We will miss our seniors, Rianna Bailey and Rachel Wright next season, but we wish them the best in college.”
