Jacobi Lafferty, a 2017 Hoop Shoot National Champion Volunteers in Vermont

"There were so many great lessons I learned from competing in the Hoop Shoot," writes Jacobi Lafferty, a 2017 #HoopShoot National Champion. "One of the most important things I learned was about how it was necessary to have a positive mindset and that if you put your mind to it, you can do anything."
