Girls Basketball Preview

 

     

      The girls’ basketball team started their season with the home opener against Beth- Center Lady Bulldogs this past Friday. From this game and until the girls last one sometime in February, we will see the team succeed and fail. Goals of some teams will be to win the section title or make it to the playoff but one thing that every coach wants to see is their players to improve. “If we can improve everyday and be in a better position than we were from the beginning; we have accomplished our mission.” said Coach Lane.
      With the leader in scoring and rebounding, Megan Stuvek, graduating last year, the Lady Mikes had to change their game plan. This year the lower classman had to step it up in making baskets, grabbing the rebounds and making the adjustment to pressing the opposite team in full court. Summer basketball leagues have made the players gain advantage and made this transition a lot smoother.
      Those are not the only adjustments the team had to make. This season the girls have a new assistant coach, Miss Brianna Rice. Miss Rice has brought a new outlook and has been a positive influence. “Miss Rice is a definitely a positive attribute to the team. She is just like one of us. I think she’s a great coach.” said Shayleigh Busti, a junior on the team. So as the season continues we will see how the girls adjust to everything and how the games will fold out.
