In a tough back-and-forth game, the boys came up short ending their season. It's hard to beat a team four times in one year.

🏆 A Banner Worth Fighting For There’s something special about seeing a group that refuses to settle—one that shows up, works, believes, and pushes until the job is done. On January 24, AF brought home a banner that will hang in the Gym, but the truth is… it represents so much more than a win. It’s hours no one saw. It’s teammates holding each other accountable. It’s coaches who never stopped believing. It’s a community that shows up, loud and proud, every single time. Walking into that gym and knowing their work will hang on those walls—right alongside the legacy of who came before them—is a feeling our boys never forget. This banner isn’t just a symbol of what they accomplished. It’s a reminder of who AF is becoming. ❤️🖤 Beaver Pride. Built together. Earned together. Hung forever.
