Recap.

I’m going to miss my team. After the season was over, we officially closed it by holding a banquet.

Here we talked about our season, how much we grew, and how our friendships became stronger.


Throughout the season, I gained some unforgettable memories, I became a stronger person. Even though a the end our friends… no, our family got injured, we played on for them. I will never forget the games I’ve played, and the lessons learned. Thank you for reading. Until next time.
