Kailey McKinney, who has played under Hicks for two seasons, nominated her for this Coach Spotlight, highlighting the impact she has made both on and off the field.
From pushing players to reach their full potential to fostering a culture built on faith, teamwork, and resilience, Hicks is more than a coach—she is a mentor, motivator, and role model.
