 "Before the team, I really was shy and was afraid to do a lot of things, because I just didn't know what I could and couldn't do.  This team has definitely helped my confidence and, like I wrote on my homework assignment, "there's nothing I can't do". The Rookies showed me that anything is possible."- Adaptive Sports, Rochester NY
