Green River Chaos took the state championship in Casper last weekend.
They played six games in a bracket style tournament winning four of the six to become the reigning champions. The last game pitted them against local rivals the Rock Springs Storm winning with a final score of 11-6.
The team has been playing together since April said coach Tami Kelley. She was very proud of the team and even commended them for playing the Cheyenne team that placed 6th in nationals. They just had a really great season.
The team consisted of 15 players ranging in ages from 14 to 19 made up of recreational team players. With three seniors who won’t be coming back next year Aaliyah Brady, Felicity Peterson and Megan Yoak. The girls were invaluable to helping the team win, especially Yoak who had an injury but remained a team player.
Head coach Trin De La O said the team is unbelievable. They faced different adversities throughout the season including weather, facility malfunctions and family issues. They overcame each one to play an amazing season and take state.
“I couldn’t be more proud,” De La O said. “We had 15 players and we couldn’t do it without each one. I could only play nine but they all did their part to become champions. I’m extremely proud.”
Players on the Green River Chaos team were Emma De La O, Mariyah Brady, LaniJo Blaylock, Megan Yoak, Kaylee Carson, Shaylee Peterson, Felicity Peterson, Madison Yoak, Abigail Dolinar, Courtlyn Avery, Abygail Waters, Dakotah Beck, Emily Reyes, Olivia Nofsinger and Aaliyah Brady.
