“I remember when Coach Fallen told me I was going to play with varsity and my stomach dropped.” Grayce Davis (9) said. “It didn’t feel real and I was trying hard not to let them down. After I while I got used to it with my teammates lifting me up and then we started winning and it was okay.”
According to the girls the game against Carter was a good win and helped prepare them for district.
