“We all got along very well as a team and encouraged each other to work harder throughout the season; we really wanted to win!” eighth-grader Sari Leven said. “It is so exciting that in my last year at Epstein, we were able to pull off first place in the MAAC Championships!”

Coach Smith is thrilled with how the girls played this year, and is hoping to build the program with a boys team next year.
