Stepping onto the field this year, Kai Robbins number 16, admits there were always a few early nerves, but she came with a sense of focus and purpose. “I was a little nervous but focused, just knowing I had to set the tone early,” she says. That mindset is what will help carry her though a season full of growth, intensity, and big moments. One thing that’s never change is the energy surrounding the team. Whether it’s the crowd or the sidelines, Kai says the support plays a huge role. “It definitely lifted us and kept the intensity high. It gave us momentum when we needed it most.”

As the season has unfolded, Kai’s confidence in the team’s direction has only grown. “Pretty good, we’re improving every single game,” she explains reflecting on the team’s steady rise. Personally, she’s focused on staying consistent, improving her decision making, and contributing more offensively; But those goals are only one part of a bigger mission. As a team, the focus is clear: stay connected, finish games strong, and make a deep postseason run.

Chemistry has been a major turning point this season. “We communicate better and trust each other more on and off the field,” Kai says crediting the team’s bond for their success. With that connection, excitement for what’s ahead keeps building. She can’t wait for their rivalry matchups, the ones that really test grit, and to see how far this team can push to reach the top.

But beyond wins, goals, and standout moments, being part of the team carries a deeper meaning for number 16. “It means family, accountability, and giving everything every time I step on the field no matter the outcome.” For Kai, this season isn’t just about the scoreboard, it’s about commitment growth, and being part of something bigger than herself.
