Although the Hornets didn’t manage to secure a District win, they still enjoyed their season.

Senior Cy Cooper felt satisfied with the Hornets season, cherishing the fun moments.

“It was so much fun.” said Cooper. “I wouldn’t ask for any other team to play with.”

The Hornets will continue to play during their off-season, participating in a travel team with the rest of their team.
