The 8th grade girls concluded their season on Tuesday night with an impressive 22-3 record, clinching the Middle School League championship. This team of 13 girls truly stands out. They are the epitome of great teammates, always working hard and never making excuses. Their unwavering support for each other was the key to their successful season. 
The team participated in two tournaments, winning the Saraland Middle School tournament and finishing as runner-ups in the Spanish Fort tournament, losing to Spanish Fort in the Finals. They were ranked #1 in the league out of 12 teams after the season matches.
