Reflections on the past season
It’s been a few weeks since the final game of the season, and I’ve had some time to reflect on the past year. Overall, I’m extremely proud of our team and the way we represented Ballard High School We worked hard day in and day out, and it showed on the court.
We had our ups and downs, but we always came back stronger. I’ll never forget the feeling of winning our last home game or the bus ride home from the State Tournament Those are memories that I will cherish for a lifetime.
I want to thank all of the coaches, parents, and fans for their support throughout the season. Without you, none of this would have been possible. Finally, I want to congratulate the seniors on a great career. You will be missed but never forgotten. Go Beavers!
