Few local athletes ever get to compete in state sectional championships. Fewer have won them. Even fewer have won three consecutive sectional titles. And only a select few have had the chance to compete for a state championship in the past decade.
The players can wear defeat as a thorny crown or a badge of honor. But if I were an underclassman, I'd have the photograph framed and on my desk, where I'd look at it each day, reminding myself that I'm not going back for a ribbon with a silver medal on it next year. Congratulations on a great season!
