Keys to your success this season:
A lot of new faces on Varsity, have to adjust to the speed of the game. Shot selection and consistent scoring.

Behind the scenes: Who are some of the people that help your program succeed? 

Jim Hagen and Bryan Graun are our AD’s and help with scheduling and making sure we are informed about anything that comes up during the season. Patti Rau is a big help also. She helps get clock and book keepers for our home games. She also helps print up practice schedules for the players. Also, a lot of the parents help throughout the year with fundraising and setting up events like Parents night and Senior night.
Coach’s comments: anything else you’d like to share?
We have a lot of new faces this year, but we have a lot of talent. The players this year are really putting in a lot of work and are improving at a good pace. Last year we lost ten seniors from a conference championship team, but with the new players this season we should be very competitive still and look to be towards the top of conference.
