In her own words: I think this season was definitely a memorable one. We had great chemistry since most of us had been playing together since we were 10 years old. I think our hard work in practices, our lifting sessions in the offseason and our teamwork truly helped us to be successful. Coach (Perry) Peterson was also our main source for motivation and always made sure we were prepared for every single game.
