Coach Aaron Olswanger said this one was an emotional one. The Boise Brave had one of their best overall team finishes in years with the boys team finishing as the 2022 5A boys State Runner ups , their best finish since 2009. Olswanger said the girls came out focused and on fire to win their 5th consecutive state title. This championship has left Coach Olswanger speechless and humbled.
