Dear Marshall,

I want to express how incredibly proud I am of each and every one of you. Reaching the national finals is no small feat, and it’s a testament to your dedication, skill,and passion.

That night’s game was tough, and I know the sting of defeat is still fresh. But let’s not forget the journey that brought us here. We’ve faced challenges, pushed our limits, and grown stronger together as a team. Every pass, every goal, every tackle was a reflection of the hard work you’ve put in, not just this season but throughout your journey in this sport.

It’s also important to remember the incredible community that has stood by us every step of the way. The fans who traveled long distances to cheer us on—those who filled the stands with their chants, their songs, and their unwavering belief in us—deserve our gratitude. They reminded us that we are not just playing for ourselves but for something bigger: our community, our families, everyone who believes in this team, and for Marshall. 

This season was about more than just the final score. It was about the connections we built, the memories we created, and the pride we brought to everyone who supports us. We’ve shown our community what can be achieved when we come together.

Now is the time to hold our heads high and use this experience as fuel for the future. Every setback is an opportunity to learn, to grow, and to come back stronger. You’ve already proven that you have the heart of champions. Let’s channel this moment into motivation for what’s to come.

Thank you for giving it your all. Thank you for representing our team, our community, and our shared passion with such grace and determination. The best chapters of this story are still ahead, and I have no doubt we will rise again.

WE ARE… MARSHALL 💚
