Outlook: “This team is a really special group to coach. We have three starters coming back (Talia, Devon, and Grace) who were a vital part to our successful season last year. These girls are coachable and do a nice job of coaching up each other throughout practices. Our girls share the ball and are not hesitant to pass up a good shot for a great shot. I think our combination of talent and player-led leadership is going to pay off throughout the season in accomplishing our goals of winning the SOL Patriot, making it to the SOL Tournament, and winning a District 1 playoff game.”
