Team/Sport – Orono/Girls Varsity Basketball
Last years record – 12 – 6
Head Coach– Nick Winchester
Expectations– Will be one of many teams in a very competitive class B division competing for a chance to play at the Cross Center in February. Could struggle early, as the team adjusts to a new coach, but should be playing its best basketball by the second half of the season.
Strengths– Depth, experience, athleticism, 3 pt shooting
Challenges– Stepping up in class from C to B with new coach, learning new concepts and schemes on both ends of the floor
Key Players/Position – Hannah Clement – G, Kassidy Dill – F, Hannah Steelman – G, Kate Richards – F, Brinsley Chasse – G, Jordan Hernandez – G, Elizabeth White – G,
Coaches Remarks– This year’s team is very deep, with all 12 players on the roster capable of contributing every time the team takes the floor. We have great balance on this team, as we have exceptional size in the front court and are extremely athletic in the back court. Our challenge will be coming together as a group, as everything is new for us this year and we have a lot to learn in order for us to reach our full potential as a team. If all goes to plan, we will be playing our best basketball by the second half of our season.
