QUAKERTOWN GIRLS’ BASKETBALL PREVIEW

Head coach:  Bryan Bednar 1st Year

Assistant coaches: Jenell Hilton and Jill Martin

Last year’s record:  2-20

Notable losses: Truly Heft (Gwynedd Mercy University), Ava Pistone, Addyson Davis, and Mackenzie Clayton

Key returners:  Paisley Heft 11th Forward and Maeve Henry 11th Forward

Others to watch:  Devan Cooper 9th PG, Ambri Dager 10th G, Alexa Seneca 10th G, Talyn Neilsen 10th F

Strengths/Question Marks:   “This year’s team brings youthful energy and enthusiasm, highlighted by a diverse mix of players across multiple grade levels. With leadership from key returners Paisley Heft and Maeve Henry in the forward positions, the team is anchored by their experience. Promising young talent, including Devan Cooper, Ambri Dager, Alexa Seneca, and Talyn Neilsen, adds depth and potential to the roster. While the team’s youthfulness is a strength, it also presents challenges, as many players lack varsity-level experience and will need to adjust to the pace and physicality of the game.”

Outlook: “This season, we are excited to field a single varsity team comprised of a diverse group of players, including eight freshmen, four sophomores, and two juniors. With such a young and dynamic roster, the focus will be on growth, development, and building team chemistry. While challenges are expected, the players are committed to facing each game together, fostering resilience, and strengthening their bond as a unit. This season offers a valuable opportunity for learning and improvement, both on and off the court, as the team embarks on a journey to develop their skills, grow together, and lay a strong foundation for the future.”
