Others to watch:  Remains to be seen

Strengths/Question Marks:  “We now have varsity starters who provide experience and leadership to facilitate young talent. There is a possibility that we may be starting four freshmen at varsity. Young talent is hard to read until you see it in a varsity game.”

Outlook:  “Each of the last two years we have made dramatic improvements. If we improve as we have in the previous two seasons, we will be a top team. Our goal is to think in inches and play the most fundamentally sound games as possible. Also, we would like to maintain a good and balanced approach to the game. Bensalem is starving for a winner, and these girls believe they can give them one.”

GAMES TO WATCH:  The Owls begin League play April 2nd away at Pennsbury and home April 4th against Neshaminy.
