Parents Come Together to Make it Work

The South Fayette Lady Lion Warriors were a family without a leader for a period of time. But in the family spirit of South Fayette, after the resignation of Coach Dudas, two parents, Dan Henry and Dean Mantia stepped up to the plate to help lead the summer conditioning and recreation program for girls interested in basketball throughout the summer. Dan and Dean were able to hold open gyms,which permitted the girls the opportunity to continue to work on their basketball skills as well as engage in conditioning, and practice collaboration.
