Final Comments:
Graduating 9 seniors last year creates inexperience at the back end of the roster for this year. We are working hard to develop the younger kids and to prepare them for their roles as bench players. Katie, Lauren and Gabbi provide a strong offensive presence from the perimeter and off the drive and are great leaders. Libby is an inside presence who runs the floor better than most guards. Izzy Arguelles and Maddy Paz will run our offense and create opportunities from their defense. And Livy Thorne is a guard post who can fill our needs an either position coming off the bench. We will be young early but we will grow as the season goes. We are working hard to push Gahanna for their top spot in the OCC Ohio division. Pick North, Westerville Central, Westland and Grove City are all much improved and every night will be a battle in this division.
