HEAD COACH
A MESSAGE FROM THE
Welcome to the 2020 RRHS Girls Lacrosse season! On behalf of our Girls Lacrosse program I want to thank you for supporting our young ladies. We truly appreciate your attendance at today’s contest. Our young ladies have been working extremely hard since the end of last season to continue building upon the foundation that has been laid for our program. Their grit and determination are truly inspiring. The River Ridge Girls Lacrosse program exists to seek excellence in all we do by providing a life changing experience that prepares our young women to be ambassadors within our community. The bonds that these student-athletes form during their lacrosse years at The Ridge will not end when they walk off that field for the last time. Instead, the memories they make and the challenges they faced over the years will help mold them into successful young women. Lacrosse is America’s fastest growing sport and our hope is that you will continue to spread the word to help support our growing Girls Lacrosse programs in Cherokee County. Last, but certainly not least, please take the time to visit our valued sponsors. To run a first-class program and to ensure that these young ladies have an incredible experience, we count on the support of our dedicated sponsors. Pay them a visit and let them know that you appreciate their support of our young ladies. Thank you again for attending today’s contest and we hope to see you again soon!
GO KNIGHTS!
