Breanna Ostrander, grade 10, may be setting the record as the first ever female to join the Redhawks, but that doesn’t mean she’s any less excited. When asked what influenced her to join, she had no problem saying since there were no girls, there was a need for diversity. Also, she wanted to prove that girls can play. Although she admitted that yes, there are some difficulties and it is harder th
an she thought it would be, for her, it’s a good challenge and she likes working towards it.Another challenge one might assume is the attitude the males may have, but Bre confirmed that the guys are nice, and the coaches treat her no differently than the guys are treated. Her friends and family support her decision as well, often asking how it’s going. Bre was quite excited to mention that her father, in particular, is very proud. She plays both offensive and defensive tackle and isn’t afraid to defend for her team. She’s really having a lot of fun when she concludes that it’s been a great season so far, and that the team works really well together.
