CENTRAL BUCKS EAST GIRLS’ BASKETBALL PREVIEW

Coach:  Liz Potash (5th year)

Assistant coaches:  Monica Stolic, Ron Chiaralonza, Lisa Garner

Last year’s record:  6-6 SOL, 16-11 (advanced to the 2nd round of the state tournament)

Notable losses:  Bridget Birkhead (Mt. St. Mary’s), Megan Browne, Grace Stewart, Bri Talbot

Key returners:  Soph Mancuso (Sr/G), Bailey McManus (Sr/G), Gina Russo (Sr/F), Elyse Shine (Jr/F)

Strengths/Question Marks:  The strength of this team lies in their athleticism and unselfishness. The question mark will be how quickly the group can come together after graduating seven seniors and four starters from the 2016-17 season. 

Outlook:  “While the team may look different from years past, we are excited about this group due to their mix of senior leadership, rising juniors and a strong freshmen class.  We will look to compete with the top competition of the Continental Conference.”
