AGASSI PREP

Head coach: Didier Lino, first season

Returning letter winners: Ten

Top athletes: Khashae Eppenger (Sr.), Diamond Rover (Sr.), Tuwani Palacio (Fr.)

Outlook: Eppenger was the Division III state champion in the 100-meter hurdles and took third in the 300 hurdles last season.

Rover placed fifth in the state meet in the shot put.

They’re among ten returnees for the Stars, who have more depth this season.

“The team has almost doubled in size from last season,” Lino said. “There weren’t many seniors on last year’s team, so we’re returning a majority of our squad, and we’re adding numerous talented freshmen and sophomores.

“I believe our girls have the potential to be strong contenders at regionals and state.”
