Congratulations to all teams and thank you to the many staff members who donated their time as volunteers to help make this event such a success. Also, thank you to the Wall of Sound for performing music and the national anthem and to the Class of 2023 for running the concession stand. Thanks to all players, coaches, and students for good sportsmanship and appropriate behavior during the event!
