A 25-year-old star of the team, Haleigh Washington, said that “It’s a great day to have a gold-medal day. The hard work they put in, the sweat, the tears, the blood has been worth it. She is so proud to have done it with this group of women. I am so honored.”
Coach Karch Kiraly added: “I am so happy for this team and these amazing women in this program. I told them not only are they bad-asses, but they are now the gold medalists.”
