CENTRAL BUCKS SOUTH GIRLS’ BASKETBALL PREVIEW

Coach:  Beth Mattern (5th season)

Assistant coaches:  Rick Weeks, Meghan Finney and Jaime Lancaster

Last year’s record:  13-10 Overall (9-5 league)

Notable losses:  Brittany Kaewell (playing at PSU Altoona), Kelsey Herrmann, Tyler Vitelli, Kimmy Green (playing at Marywood College) and Ginny Edwards (playing at Wilkes)

Key returners:  Seniors- Kate McMenamin (center), Madi Vitelli (pt. guard), and guards Shannon Senour and Tori Steinberg.  Sophomore- Alysha Lofton

Others to watch:  Juniors Rachel Falkowski and Amber Eife

Strengths/Question Marks:  We have a new nucleus of players on the team.  The girls have good chemistry together but we have a lot of work to have consistency playing together. 

Outlook:  “There is a lot of energy in the gym - we have had the most players ever try out for the team this season.  We believe that our league is going to be a tough battle every night and there are some very good teams in District One this season.  We have a tough schedule ahead of us, and we are taking the season one game at a time.  As coaches, we are looking forward to watching our team grow as a unit and seeing what we can accomplish together this season.”
