Strengths/Question marks: “Our Seniors are some of the hardest working players I have ever had the pleasure to coach. Attending summer leagues, off-season tournaments, and fall league play. Their leadership can carry us a long way. The team took a big hit with the season ending injury to Lilly Hansen, our leading rebounder, shot blocker and defensive stalwart. Role players continue to grow and get accustomed to the speed of the varsity level will determine our success against a very competitive Freedom league and SOL schedule.”
Outlook: “The team is looking forward to the regular season. There is a lot of pride in our locker room with players that enjoy playing basketball together. Our team goals can be met if we continue to work hard, improve each and every day at practice, and buy into our offensive and defensive strategies. If our underclassmen follow the lead of our seniors, we will have a memorable season.”
