When asked why she chose Lake Region, Hope said this: "I chose Lake Region because of the positive team environment and supportive coaching staff."
Waddell on Hope Cross: "I have had the pleasure of coaching Hope in various summer camps over the past two summers, and she stood out to me as a player that would fit in with our program instantly. She is a very thoughtful setter who has a strong desire to constantly improve. This fits very well with the motto that we live by, which is 'Be Better Everyday'. Hope also is very academically-minded, which is another value that our team has established as a part of culture, and Hope will certainly help us to achieve that goal. I am excited to see what next season will bring and work with Hope in our gym!"
The Royals will be very exciting to watch next season with a lot of local talent and strong players from around the world! The season will open the weekend of August 22-23 at the Opening Weekend Tournament in Rockford, Illinois.
