    Congrats to the coaches and players of the Catawba Valley Storm!! My daughter has had the opportunity to play for Shane and JJ every now and then and they are both great coaches and the girls are a very dedicated and hard working group. We do want Gina Loflin to know that we are VERY proud of her. She has accomplished a lot over her TB years and we know she'll do great at Walter's State. We plan on making a special trip to Tennessee to watch you play. We love you like you were one of our own girls!! Congrats Again.
