Tomorrow's Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors' meeting will have a touch of school spirit as Supervisor Kathryn Barger is set to honor two Antelope Valley high school girls' teams fresh off their victories as California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) champions for Southern California. The Antelopes, Antelope Valley High School's girls' basketball team snagged the CIF Southern Section Division 5A Championship while the Royals, Quartz Hill High School's girls soccer team, clinched their first CIF Southern Section Division 2 Championship, respectively.

In a blend of sportsmanship and ceremony, the triumphs of these young athletes will be spotlighted through a special video message by Supervisor Barger, who will book Tuesday's meeting. Encapsulating the energy and dedication it takes to become a champion, the Lady 'Lopes have netted themselves a second CIF title in basketball, and the Royals have kicked their way to their inaugural crown. "Both The Antelopes and The Royals have a lot of heart," Supervisor Barger noted in a statement, "These youth have demonstrated a commitment to excellence, to not giving up, and to remain focused, according to County of Los Angeles.

Marking this occasion is not just about the accolades themselves, but also about shining a light on these young women during Women's History Month, honoring their place in a legacy of female achievement.

Barger's planned school visits are more than just a pat on the back; they're an acknowledgment of the effort put forth by these student-athletes, and the inspiration they offer their peers. "I am so proud of them and their hard-earned success," Barger stated, emphasizing the value of recognition and expressing a desire to celebrate such milestones. "This is a modest way to recognize a big accomplishment, but I want to share my congratulatory message with both teams who have placed the Antelope Valley on the CIF map, Hard work does not go unnoticed," as per the County of Los Angeles.
