Pennsbury Girls' Basketball Preview

PENNSBURY GIRLS’ BASKETBALL PREVIEW

Coach: Frank Sciolla  2nd year

Assistant coaches: Jen Sroba, Sean Ryan, Logan Klock, Eric Marseglia

Last year’s record:  3-9 SOL, 9-13 (up from 4-18 previous year)

Notable losses: Meredith Webber (Soccer at UMBC), Dany Cady

Key returnees: Sydney Buell (Senior - F); Kate Mix (Junior - F); Cami Wiegand (Soph - G); Mary Miller ( Soph - G)

 

Others to watch: Bella Arcuri (Freshman - G); Skyler Sulby ( Junior - C)

 

Strengths/Question Marks:  Optimism and exuberance are strengths.  Depth will be a concern until more than half the roster learns to move on from the Disney Channel to the Discovery Channel.

Outlook: “The Falcons will need a strong growth mindset as they replace their starting backcourt and tackle an extremely challenging non-league slate that includes five games against state playoff teams and, of course, their very competitive league led by defending District One 6A champ Abington. They have several milestones they’d like to reach, and health will be a factor as they develop their depth. Attention to detail has been tremendous during the first few weeks, and several girls have stepped up as key decision makers. Defense and unselfish play will determine whether the group goes over or under their expectations.”
