2023-24 Outlook: Last year we had a lot of size and not a lot of depth. We only played 6 or 7 girls. This year we are smaller, quicker, deeper, and hungry. The team is really cohesive and plays well together. Our strengths will be defense and speed.

We have a nice core of senior leadership mixed in with Freshman and Sophmores with a lot of potential. “We are building a culture of unity and togetherness and we are hoping that this season is a building block to great things in the program”.

The girls play unselfish, team basketball and we are excited to see what this year brings.
