Devin’s first jump

The Athletic year comes to a close today. It’s been a long, stressful year. Our coaches and players had to deal with COVID rules for practices/games; shutdowns/quarantines; revamped schedules; weeks with 6 games; and let’s not forget Mother Nature was still highly active. I want to take this opportunity to thank the coaches and student-athletes for their patience and ability to adapt on a very short notice. To the parents; thank you for dealing with the multitude of changes; the home games moved to away games; the having to watch your children on livestream(especially ours); and the new and different ways of purchasing tickets. 2020-21 was memorable for sure; but, here’s hoping next year we will see a return to some sort of normal. To Devin and Kaycee, good luck today and let’s end the year on a high note.

Good luck to Gabe Davis as he plays in the PA East West All Star Game on Sunday in Harrisburg. Go get ‘em, Gabe.
