“No one else in the state was more well-rounded and as dominant as Delaney. Delaney is also a phenomenal young woman of high character. Over the last two years, the Timberline games have been some of my favorites because facing a player like Delaney brings out the best in a team. She plays the game the right way and displays sportsmanship whether they are winning or losing.”
