The Wolves are 7-0 and have wins over Forest Glen, Sawgrass Springs, Imagine Charter, Renaissance Charter, Ramblewood, Coral Springs Middle, and Lyons Creek. Westglades had not allowed a touchdown until their sixth game of the season. They also won in overtime in their last game.
“The girls have not only skill but they heart,’ said Head Coach Dawn Azzarelli. “They are the best group of girls I have ever coached in my eight years as the Westglades Middle School girl’s coach. I would love to see them carry this all the way.”
