LONG STORY SHORT… ⏩️ Still looking for the right fit for the 2023-2024 travel ball season! Looking to play a strong national schedule w/experienced coaches. In the meantime, nothing changes; I’ll continue working to become a better student, athlete, entrepreneur, and person.
We won all of our pool games, finished as the
#1
seed and were bumped up to the Supplemental Power Pool. We’re ready for bracket play tomorrow! 💪 You can find us bringing the energy & dance moves to a field near you!
