The Lady Wildcats began another basketball season with Head Coach Dan Bushman at the helm. The team is coming off a very strong season from a year ago in which they went 28-8, including an 18-game winning streak which was finally stopped in the 1A State Championship game.
This year’s veteran roster includes seniors, Samantha Jesmer, April Neill, Gabrielle Jesmer and Jorja Hutchens; juniors, Kaci Palmer, Raylee Fish, McKenzie Jesmer, Audrey Neill, Jaydiana Kinlicheenie and Amber Neill. Tori Beatty is the lone Sophomore on the roster.
The Wildcats opened their season on Thursday night with a resounding 79-19 road win in Cibecue. Early this week they will be in action at the Small School Boyd Baker Tip Off tournament. They were scheduled to face San Simon on Monday afternoon, then see Patagonia Union on Tuesday morning and St. Augustine on Tuesday afternoon.
Next Tuesday they will host Northland Prep. The following Tuesday they will host Mogollon in an early season meeting between the two rivals.
