Mayor Emery Doughtie not only read the teams letters congratulating them on their accomplishments, but had Councilman Ernest Bobbitt by his side to give them city pins.
After receiving the pins they walked a gauntlet of handshakes and highfives from council members.
“We want you to be proud of your community and what you’ve done for it as well as your coaches and the adults,” the mayor said.
