"A huge thank you to our team for their commitment and belief every day. Thank you to Jess Drummond and Casey Pearsall for their endless work to help develop our 35 young women on and off the field. Also to Kristen O'Connell and Bekkah Bond for keeping us strong and healthy. Our program has taken a huge step forward and I'm excited to build on our success in the future. I'm going to miss seeing this group every day."
