Glory, who will be a junior at LHHS, was named 2010 Co-Defensive Player of the Year in District 9-5A. She’s expected to be a dominant force on the Lady Cats’ team when the school year begins anew, and she’ll be surrounded by a strong crop of returning players who also earned all-district honors: Maggie Olvera, Avery Voigt, Lena Anderson, Kelsey Munoz, Brinkley Field, Jennifer Kunz, Norma Perez, Natalie Morris and Diana Sharber.

Glory said she had a blast playing for Sting in regional and national games – especially the championships in Overland Park, Kansas on Saturday. Congratulations, Glory!
