“I told them, ‘Hey, you’re top-five in the state. Nobody can take that away from you. You earned it and be proud of it. Congratulations,’ said Storm head coach Bob Freschi.

It’s a commitment that began during the offseason, continuing into the fall, through dual matches and Big 8 Conference tournaments.
