As the final buzzer sounded and cheers could be heard from the other side of the Coliseum, HR’s student section remained silent. Many did not even move a muscle for a solid two minutes. Everyone was visibly in disbelief; the team that no one from HR had seen lose this season, had been beat. This year, HR’s girls basketball team made it to the Final Four for the first time in three years. In their season, they went 25-2, and remained number one in state even after their 52-53 loss to Cherry Creek High School in the Final Four. As the 27th ranked team in the nation, there are a lot of aspects that went into their many successes as a team.
