We achieved an aspiration that can never be taken away from us. We developed a strong team with an unbreakable bond. Our defenders are unbelievable strong, our attack is unstoppable, and our midfielders are astounding. And lets not forget about Mad Dog and Adele, we wouldn’t have accomplished anything without [them]! We are one, together,” said junior Summer Staso.
