Coach’s Quote
Quote from the coach Tom Frazier:
“Super proud of our kids, parents, administration, and staff. To go out and perform like that against a great opponent is a testament to the work we have done since last season. But… it’s a scrimmage, we have a long way to go, and a lot of goals left to accomplish. I’ve been coaching a while and I have never seen a core group of kids and coaches that are this committed to our program. The support from the middle school administration (Mrs. Sammons, Mr. Short and Mrs. Meek) has been awesome. The sky is the limit, and I can’t wait to see how we continue to improve.”
