Coach Brittany said this about her team after a great week of play:

"JV had the opportunity to play in the North Star Tournament as well. They lost during pool play but beat Box Elder Varsity 2-0. They then played Sunburst Varsity and battled hard but lost 1-2".

"I was beyond excited to beat Centerville in 3 on Thursday night. I thought we played really well and brought a lot of energy. That was a huge win for us! Centerville was undefeated in the Conference up until Thursday. This win brought us up in the rankings to #1 in the Conference. Now we have the target on our backs, which means we have to prove ourselves. It's a matter of being confident while also remaining humble. The Varsity went undefeated at the North Star Tournament and were Tournament Champions. This was really exciting, since we have never won a tournament before. I was proud of our effort and our ability to finish. This coming week is another big one for us! We will play Fort Benton at HOME on Thursday night! It's Senior Night, so we hope to see a lot of Pioneer Fans in the stands!"
