Coaches Kristie Donathan and Scott Moore and DI coordinator Nancy Green are proud to announce that the DI AKA Camero Red Shots finished in 21st place and the Imaginators finished in 29th place. “We would like to thank all that made this trip possible,” Donathan said. “This was a trip of a lifetime and something that these kids will remember forever.”
