2011 Pennridge Girls' BB Preview

PENNRIDGE GIRLS’ BASKETBALL PREVIEW

Coach:  David Martin (2nd season)

Assistant coach:  Lindsey Tennett

Last year’s record:  1-13 SOL, 3-19

Notable losses:  None

Key returners:  Jen Cooley, Sr., Forward (4-year starter), Brianne McGrath, Sr., Center; Alyssa Marchunsky, Sr., Forward, Nici Bonacci, Sr., Guard, Molly McGuire, Sr., Guard, Jessie Dominic, Sr., Guard, Shannon Chynoweth, Jr., Forward, Jordan Rimmer, Soph., Guard (HM All-League)

Others to watch:  Jessie Tennett, Soph., Forward, Alex Villella, Soph., Guard, Devon Rink, Soph., Center, Kaeli White, Fr., Guard

Strengths:  Our strengths are senior leadership and experience as we return all the starters from last year’s team. Our overall speed and athleticism should turn into easy scores. We also have some young talent moving up this year.

Question marks:  As usual, our biggest question mark is our size. Can we match up with the talented big girls in our league from CB East, Souderton and North Penn. Also, we look to be more consistent than last year.

Outlook:  We need to build on our chemistry from the end of last year if we have any chance to compete with the teams in our league. We have the experience now, so all we need is to be consistent scoring. Our defense should help us in getting some easy buckets this year. We do return all five starters and have valuable experience throughout the team.
