In 2023 we have two full squads: Varsity and B/C-Squad. The B/C-Squad will play a schedule based on a combination of the "9th Grade" and "JV" schedules posted on big9.org.
The B/C-Squad will include 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th graders. For practices the B/C-Squad will practice at JM along with the Varsity team. Stay tuned for schedule updates. Go Rockets!
Season Finale: Rockets eliminated with loss to Lakeville North -- as our 2024 season comes to an end. To Jordan and Kate -- thank you, love you. You've left your mark and we couldn't be prouder of the young women that leave our program after six years. Once a Rocket, Always a Rocket!!
