Southern Tier Thunder 12U- Hays

The day may not have ended exactly how we wanted, but what a weekend and what a season for the ladies of Thunder 12U Hays!

The girls battled all weekend and finished 2nd overall in the Dog Days of Summer Tournament, falling to a very strong Blaze team in the championship game.

This team continues to show just how much they have grown throughout the season. From the first tournament to now, their hard work, determination, resilience, and commitment to one another have been incredible to watch.

Every practice, every game, and every challenge has helped shape this team into a group that competes with heart and never backs down.
We couldn't be prouder of these young athletes for the way they support each other and continue to improve every time they step on the field. This runner-up finish is another milestone in what has been an amazing season, and we know they're not done yet!

Thank you to our families, coaches, and supporters for cheering these girls on every step of the way.
