"Although our Buccaneers had won three straight Region Titles, this year our opponents underrated us to their chagrin.  CVCC maintained their composure and confidence under the toughest of competition to come out on top. I am so proud of these young men.  What a great group of guys!  They have learned to overcome adversity and hang together as a tight unit.  We've all learned life lessons we'll never forget."  Jeff Moore
