Today was about grit, growth, and heart. These girls gave everything they had, and even though no one qualified for state this year, we couldn’t be prouder of the athletes and people they’re becoming. Proud to be their coaches.

Barbara, Emmaline, Noley and McKenzie will be wrestling in the heartbreak round.
