Our coaches shared this with the CSB staff upon coming back home:
"Taylor and I want to thank all of you for the continued support you have given the team. This weekend was amazing! For most of our athletes, this was their first time playing in a competitive, high stakes environment. For some, this was also their first time traveling without their family. Thank you for all the texts, phone calls and Instagram messages to the CSB page. We shared all the compliments with the team each time we received one." ~Molly
What an amazing experience! Thank you to our strong community of supporters for always cheering us on!
