Strasburg High School is located just off Exit 298 on I-81, and trust me when I say that the town bleeds purple !
Suzanne Mathias coached a group of young ladies, including seven Seniors who entered kindergarten together 13 years earlier. The team made their way to Richmond and captured the State Championship in the fall of 2007 !
Northern Virginia Daily sports editor, Chuck McGill, took the time to put me in a position to cover the matches, and for that, I’m grateful ! John Galle snapped off the cover photo for us, and Karma played out later when he won a State Media award for the shot!
Sabrena did all the heavy lifting in regards to the layout while Shorty and I chased down the information on each of the players.
We were able to use the funds from the stories I wrote for the NVD to cover the cost of the book, allowing us to gift the project to the school !
It was just one of many TEAM efforts during a busy decade plus !
