Strengths/Question Marks: With strong leadership, William Tennent has taken the preseason to concentrate on individual skill development and highly emphasized team play. Young players will look to upperclassmen to model play and execution skills on the field.
Outlook: “With only two returning varsity starters and nine seniors graduating in the previous season, this year’s team is very young. However, the underclassmen have a magnitude of potential and are physically and mentally prepared to step up and fill important roles on the field. The Lady Panthers worked hard in the offseason and are looking forward to being competitive this year.”
