Calls of “pass it” and “look down field” echo across the field, rebounding off the bleachers like the ball off of player’s heads. The team is just that: a team. And for a young group of athletes, sporting only six juniors and seniors of the 19 players, the season was an overall success.
The team ended 11-4-2 with impressive displays from senior Nikia Toomey as the team MVP. They lost at the district quarter finals in a close match against rival Winter Park, 1-3.
Head coach Brooke Humphrey is proud of her girls, and feels the Winter Park game could have ended differently, but it was an advantageous experience, nonetheless, for the team as whole.
“The Winter Park game could have gone either way. Both teams had the same amount of shots, but we made a few mistakes and they capitalized on those opportunities. [This season] was a learning experience; the team finally knows they have the ability to play with the best of the best,” Humphrey said.
