#TheSeason2022-23: Mandarin

We are once again compiling #TheSeason recaps.

Teams will be selected randomly until completion UNLESS a head coach sends a complete set of all records for all varsity starts for their team (ideally boys AND girls but if boys’ only are immediately available, I’ll do what I can do). In that event, that team will go immediately to the head of the line. Our next team, Mandarin, was on random selection.

If you’re not sure if I have full results for your team, consult our schedule for the 2022-23 season; anything not fully bolded is missing.
