Well ... we fell one game short of our goal to be playing on the last day of the season. Couldn’t be prouder of the composure and competitiveness we showed all season long to finish with a final record of 18-4. Heads held high even on a rough day. Go Mustangs, RMR!
Coach Castenson and his wife welcomed Cal into the world on Sunday morning! Everyone is doing great. He’s excited to cheer on the Mustangs this coming summer‼️
