The team took part in the "digital detox" last year after Jennifer Christensen, whose daughter Addy played on the team, challenged the athletes to give up their smartphones for an entire month.
"I did not foresee 100% participation," she said.
Addy Christensen also participated in a separate experiment during the detox, undergoing brain scans throughout the month.
Now, more than a year later, Jennifer Christensen said she has noticed what she believes are lasting behavioral changes.
She described that as a greater awareness among teens of when and why they reach for their phones, particularly when they are anxious.
For Christensen, the most noticeable changes have gone beyond phone use.
"To come out on the other side in the ways she has is really exciting," Christensen said of her daughter.
Jennifer and Addy have since been invited to speak at events, sharing what they learned from the digital detox with other families and communities.
"They won't even look like they did at the beginning of the digital detox and it's only in positive ways," she said.
