Lauren Ervin Jr. 5’10” F 1ppg 2rpg Very athletic forward who can also handle the ball and took on a bigger role in the District run last year.

Hailey Sammarco Sr 5’5″ Sat out most of last year with an injury but is back fully healthy. Was a Varsity contributor her Sophmore year. Brings major speed and athleticism to the team.

2022 Outlook: The team brings back a core of players (Chilcote, Ervin, Siggins, Zurinskas) who were big contributors in the run to the District 11 6A title last year. The players around them are solid contributors who should all find their roles quickly. Defense, speed and shooting are all strengths of this team.

The team did lose some depth when Sophie Frank Jr 6’0″ F, Julia Scriff Sr 5’5″ G and Isabella Hallal Fr 5’9″ G were lost to injuries. Newcomers will need to fill those roles.
