Western Girls Basketball 2012-2013 Capsule

November 19, 2012 - 8:05 pm
 

Head coach: Annette Megown, second season

2011-12 record: 10-18 (10-6 Southwest)

Returning letter winners (starters): Five (two)

Top players: F Aleya Ford-Wheaton (Sr.), G Guadalupe Herrera (Jr.), G Capricia Pierce (Fr.), C Destiny Gonzalez (Fr.), G Paea Sovou (Jr.)

Outlook: The Warriors made the playoffs for the first time in five seasons last year, but lost three of their starters from that team.

Ford-Wheaton is back after averaging 5.6 points and 6.0 rebounds per game, and Herrera scored 4.0 ppg last year.

"Our outlook is pretty optimistic with having a very young group and only two returning starters," Megown said. "We have two outstanding freshmen that will be a huge key to our success.

"My expectation is to continue to build this program and make the playoffs again this year."
