Stockhill talked about this opportunity and what it means for the team after the hardest offseason this program has ever had, “The off season is a time to establish camaraderie with your teammates and train harder than our competition. It’s our job to make sure we are as prepared as we can be to face our competition and our offseason workouts are a time for us to outwork other teams.”

The rams prepared more than they ever have before in the past during this first offseason under the leadership of Coach Stockhill. The month before thanksgiving break they spent many hours in the new and improved Riverview weight room with many girls from both JV and Varsity showing up.
