LEAGUE DIRECTOR’S COMMENTS
“… The emotions of how much this league truly meant to each player showed over this weekend. Players smile, players cry, players never give up. Under the lights at Stella Moore these women played like it was their last game ever. However, it’s not their last game and could be someones first next season! Excited to see next season begin!”
