Trophies have come to symbolize recognition of a job well done. All sports are competitive and while we emphasize that winning isn't everything, the winning team that worked so hard to achieve that goal should receive accolades.

of your favorite shirt in the dryer, just leave you with that
sinking feeling that your season is in trouble. Let's take a
