"I think the season went well, and the girls came together as a team. Everyone grew up and I wouldn't have wanted to spend it with anyone else. I will miss the team and coaches and being a part of it all, My advice for the team would be always work hard and give it your best," Allison Burch said. "The season was better than last year because we won more. I will miss playing basketball with the girls. My advice is to never give up. My favorite memory is all of our wins," Veronica Ferry said. "The girls' team ended the season with a record of 8 wins and 13 losses. The team took 3rd at the Yates Center pre-season tournament and 3rd at the Wildcat Classic. The girls really grew as team members and players," Coach Lorrie Self said. Varsity Girls' Basketball Scoreboard

We are looking forward to showing up Thursday and playing our best basketball," Coach Gavin Wuthrich said. "I think we had a great season we worked very well together. I will miss the team and the season and all the cheering. My advice for the team would be to never give up and never stop fighting because every team is beatable. My best memory would have to be when we won the first game of sub-state," Dakota Clift said. "I think the season went really well and better than the last couple of years. I will miss all the practices and the coaches. My advice for the team would be to never take plays off and don't regret not doing something on court. My best memory would be having dinner at coach's house at the start of the season," Jake Lanier said. "The season was good because we worked hard and we plan on going far in sub-state, I will miss just getting to play basketball everyday.

"I thought the season went better than expected even thought we had out rough patches, we made it through. I will miss not being able to be a part of the team again. My advice to other wrestling is to keep grinding through the hard practices," Jace Brewer said. "The season was good. Everyone worked hard and didn't give up. I will miss how close the teammates are. My advice to others is don't quit, no matter how hard it may seem, it is worth it. My favorite part is being with the team on Fridays before the meets when we eat together and just hang out," Vincent Fulghum said. "The season was decent, since we sent two guys to state. My advice to future wrestlers is that practices are difficult, but they are worth it in the end. I will miss the sport, that I fell in love with over the years," Denton Douglas said. |
