Coach Baylee Rogers said that meeting their goals this season was not an easy process, but the team did whatever was asked of them with a smile on their face.  “All year, these girls played with focus and determination to achieve their ultimate goal of winning a state championship.  I could not be prouder to see them bring a state championship back to Bogart.”
