The Tigers are playing through the District season with confidence, calmness, and courage. Head Volleyball Coach Amy Mangum is continuing to remind the athletes that it’s not about how you start, but how you finish.
“Some of our key components so far have been recovering from being down in matches and coming back strong. We have talked about staying positive and having a reset when things aren’t going as smoothly as we would like! We will continue to work to get better at that,” said Coach Mangum.
