During the five years the school has been existence, the Wolves have qualified for five regional tournaments and two state tournaments.  The Winter 2009 season has seen the team continue its impressive growth as a program with early season wins against 2A Tombstone and 3A Chino Valley. Emphasizing pressure defense and up tempo offense, the Lady Wolves work incredibly hard in both practice and games.
