The road to redemption

After an undefeated 15-0 regular season, they entered the NJCAA Division III National Tournament with one goal—redemption. It had been four years since their last national title, and the sting of finishing as runners-up in 2023 was still fresh. But this team was determined to make history.
A hard-fought victory
The Pioneers’ dominance in the tournament—6-0, 8-0 and 3-0 victories—was a testament to their commitment, teamwork and perseverance. Their flawless 15-0 record during the regular season and impressive 88-4 score differential proved they were more than deserving of the championship title.
