In 8th grade, our final tournament with our metro west team. It was so fun to be with that team for the last time, but also very sad.

Focus on being in the best shape you can and working on having great defense because those two are the first few steps to becoming a successful player. The offense will come!

Needham and Braintree as I think that they are going to be two of our hardest games this year, and I know they will be exciting for us as players, and also will be fun games to watch.

My dad because he coached me when I was young during metro west and helped to shape me into the player I am today.

I am excited and confident because everyone puts in the effort and works hard all the time. I know that we are going to accomplish a lot of great things this year as a team.
