Burke School District 26-2

💙🏐 What a season, Cougars! Tonight didn’t end the way we hoped, but it certainly doesn’t take away from everything this team has accomplished. From the first serve of the season to the final point tonight, these girls played with grit, heart, and pride! To our seniors, thank you. You’ve led with passion, perseverance, and love for the game. Though the road to State ends here, the memories, lessons, and bonds built this season will last far beyond the court. Hold your heads high!! We are Cougar Proud!! 💙🐾
