Congratulations to Liv L., Kaylee D., and Brynley H. for being selected as top peformers!
Liv tried out for the first time this year and she has learned so much in just a couple of months. She is a very coachable player. She has listened and asked questions about how she can improve. She had 6 points against D50 and 4 points against Washington Middle last week.
Kaylee is a constant vocal leader on the court and off. She encourages her teammates and helps girls that just starting playing basketball recently. She had a great game against Tremont this week scoring 10 points and pulling down numerous rebounds for her team!
Brynley had a great performance this week at Tremont. She led her team on the offensive end by taking good care of the ball and she also played solid defense which caused many turnovers for Tremont. She scored 14 points in the 7th grade game and then helped the 8th grade team by pouring in three 3 point shots to end with a total of 12 points.
