Grace Hardcastle is the January Girls Basketball Player of the Month. She is the daughter of Justin and Jennifer Hardcastle.

Hardcastle is a sophomore and has been in basketball all of her life.

She loves that she bonds with her teammates while playing basketball, and enjoys seeing all of their hard work come together.

Hardcastle transferred from Waukee to ADM, and to her, being honored as Athlete of the Month means that she is now part of the Adel community.

Hardcastle believes she has been honored as Athlete of the Month because she has had a lot of success during her games.

In recognition of her achievements, the Adel Rotary Club has donated $100 to the ADM Scholarship Foundation.
