WHAT SETS STING APART:
Being a part of Sting is more than just being a part of a basketball team. It’s about learning to live a life of faith and following God
The coaches- Lydia and Jonathan are the greatest role models I could ask for. I still look to them for advice, encouragement, and anything else I would ever need
Emphasis on doing things the right way- ie. proper form, footwork, communication, etc.

FAVORITE STING MEMORIES:
The long bus rides to nationals in Oklahoma
Epic UNO showdowns
The devotionals we would have in random places like hotel lobbies or the cramped corners of gyms- invaluable lessons learned
