Team's style of offense:
We are a very athletic team that likes to push the ball in transition and look for good quick shots. When playing in the half court we like to play inside out and make teams decide if they are going to double our bigs or not.

Team's style of defense:
We put a huge emphasis on ball pressure and being disruptive no matter what defense we are in. We like to switch things up often to keep the offense from getting in a rhythm.

Final Comments:
We are a veteran team now with mostly seniors and juniors leading the way. All 4 of our starters have a ton of varsity experience and with our tournament run last year are very motivated to give ourselves another chance at a state title run. We have a lot of talent and a balanced attack but our depth at this point in the season is not where it was last year having 4 seniors off the bench. This means we will need to stay out of foul trouble and stay healthy while our bench players gather experience and become more comfortable in the varsity lineup. We play a very tough schedule this year but believe we have the ability to win every game as long as we play to our potential.
 
 
Carl Singer is one of the good guys in coaching. Works hard and has built his program from the ground up. Props to Naomi Benson for staying home and leaving her mark when all of the vultures have been circling for years. The tourney win over SVSM in the Sweet 16 last year was an all-timer.
