I think offense will be our strength. We lost a lot to graduation in the back, so that's where we're trying to catch up.

At this point, I'm just hoping the younger players begin to gel with the older ones. Hopefully with Twin, we'll see where we are realistically -- if we can compete and possibly pull out a victory. A little confidence-builder, regardless of the score, could go a long way.

Having made the adjustment to 4A last year, we are a little more prepared as to what we need to accomplish to get back to state.

We're excited about that. Twin has always been a good rivalry, and the 7 p.m. start allows more people to come out.

We were hit hard by graduation, but I think the kids are ready to step in and fill that void and do everything they can to go get (another region title).

With the graduation of six starting players, we will have a lot of new faces to integrate into the lineup. We will be so inexperienced that anyone who steps up will get a chance to play. We will be focusing on playing defense behind Heather and giving her good offensive support to needed to win games.
