Happy Sunday Cougar Nation. It is impossible to thank everyone over the last 23 years who has supported and helped build our program. I have been so blessed to have had the best student athletes, families, coaches, and school staff that any coach could ever hope for and I can never thank each of you enough for all your support and love over the last 23 years of the Girls Soccer Program.

Even though I won’t be here physically anymore, I will always be here in spirit cheering on our new soccer coach and I know the program and school will continue to be the best in nation!

Lastly, until I see every alum personally, I’m sending HUGE hugs to all of you!

Love you Cougar Nation!
