Coach Kevin Cadenas guided the team during its winning season, and many of the team’s
top players were recognized for their accomplishments. Sophomore Quincy Bowles was
named the Sunshine League’s Most Valuable Player – the first time an IH student has
received this honor in many years, according to Athletic Director Maureen Rodriguez.

sophomores Mia Tetrault and Mei Li O’Neil. Those named to 2 nd Team All Sunshine
League were sophomores Quinn Lanza and Isabella Roney and freshman Ryan Younger.

league this year:
“It was the most exciting experience where our hard work during the season reached its
peak,” Ella Tetrault said.
Olivia Katz added, “Our senior night was really special since we won league. Best night
of my life!”
With the arrival of the team’s championship banner for the school auditorium, Riley
Younger said the league title “left a mark at our school when we look back at our
reunion.”
