The team was placed in the silver division, with two other teams. My dad was on the roster as my assistant coach.

Changing environments from a small town, Mackay Idaho, with only five hundred people to a city with thousands of people was a completely different adventure. The transition was a huge experience for me because of the change in the environment, people, and school. I had much more experiences to see and do.
