A Team Full of Potential

The team is predominantly made up of young talent, with 24 freshmen leading the charge, followed by 15 sophomores, 6 juniors, and 13 seniors. Freshmen are particularly exciting for the coaching staff, as they bring promise and potential to the table!
Goals That Soar High
As the team gears up for competition in the 4A West alongside schools like Evanston, Star Valley, and Kelly Walsh, their ambitious goals are to not only represent their school but also to increase their presence at the State meet.
