“… Players are putting in a lot of work bringing a great positive energy to the floor. Our seniors, Ally Huffman and Riley McClanahan, are doing a fantastic job of leading by example both on and off the court with work ethic, communication, and decision-making. Our juniors, Sophie Adkins, Grace Blevins, Emma Collins, Kenzley Brooks, Laynie York, Sara Shannon, are making waves being explosive and aggressive throughout games, coming into their own and capitalizing on their strengths.
