Before the state tournament, we talked to Lyman Lady Eagles head coach Jason Hansen and Mountain View’s girls coach, Jessica Moretti. Moretti talked about how she felt the team did last week at regionals where they came in second place.
I thought the girls played some great games this weekend, we did so many good things. I’m looking forward to the opportunity of having another chance to refine some of our game situations and get back out on the court and compete again this weekend!

Hanson had similar statements to make as he spoke on the teams’ grit and fight they have shown throughout the year.
Super proud of these girls and their hard work to get to where we are today. They are a special group that has a lot of grit and fight. They also care about each other and root for their teammates to succeed.
– Jason Hansen
