ORIGIN STORY
It was 2013 when my team turned into a year-round group and we decided that we needed an official name & identity. That was right about the time that Allison Macsas stepped down from coaching and I was fortunate enough to have several of her loyal athletes transition to my team. As we started the conversations on team names, someone recalled the name of Allison's team, which was the "A-team". Someone then jokingly suggested that we call ourselves the "B-team" ... while I would never feel bad about coming in second place to Allison in anything ... we all agreed that B-team didn't quite have the ring to it that we were looking for . We continued to brainstorm around the letter B ... someone shouted out the Killer B's and it stuck!
