Brandi Castanedais back at the helm for Pocomoke. We asked her about expectations for this year’s team.

“Going the distance into November to the state final would obviously be what our large focus, but honestly it’s growing the family. Because we know the closer we are and the most we play our collective spirit and team, we can go the distance. But really that’s what we need to focus on. And our game is coming together nicely. We’re just looking at each next opponent as a new start and an opportunity to grow.”
