    A farmer who had a quarrelsome family called his sons and told them to lay a bunch of sticks before him. Then, after laying the sticks parallel to one another and binding them, he challenged his sons, one after one, to pick up the bundle and break it. They all tried, but in vain. Then, untying the bundle, he gave them the sticks to break one by one. This they did with the greatest ease. Then said the father, Thus, my sons, as long as you remain united, you are a match for anything, but differ and separate, and you are undone.

It was a big-time win for College Park. My kids played hard. They played inspired. I'm very proud of them. They fought until the end and we pulled it off. Monique hit two big free throws in the fourth quarter and Allie iced it with two free throws. Rachel was everywhere defensively. We made more history at College Park. This group is making history every couple of weeks. It's an exciting group of kids.
