(FESTUS) Festus basketball player Abby Rickerman is a Regional Radio Winter Dream Team athlete after helping lead the Tigers to their first 20-win season since the 2000-01 campaign.
For Abby and the Tigers, accomplishing that feat wasn’t a goal for them at the beginning of the season, but still, cool nonetheless.
