In closing, Coach Smith cited many state records his Lady Eagle team members had risen to earn and many other accomplishments attained as to JCDHS records reset by this year's team members.
The entire evening was a complimentary adventure between coaches, JCD staff, student athletes and volunteers who had committed time, effort and financial aid to see that Eagle programs continue to stay healthy and the tradition strong and meaningful.
Acknowledgment of appreciation to the many sources of media that cover Eagle sports were mentioned throughout the program.
May I express my appreciation also to the many who help to get sports information to us that we may complement the many student sports activities. Special thanks to coach Bradshaw, coach Smith, AD Mark Meyer and athletic office secretary Joni Lunsford. Your willingness to share information in a timely manner is most greatly appreciated and rewarding to your student athletes.
