Southwestern comes off a highly successful 20-11 season. What must they do to get to the top of the 12th region?

Work on Handling the ball and make less turnovers.

The Warriors return 4 starters and will be right in the mix for the 12 region next year. I agree they must cut down on turnovers and play good solid defense.

The biggest thing I have seen this summer is going to be keeping their ego's in check. Not that they were out of check when I saw them but there is LOTS of talent there and that is the biggest thing that gets in the way!

That's a powerful three letter word. But it's true if they don't keep it in check Tim Rice and the Lady Warriors are going to be in for a long season.

What is wrong with the younger Fothergills knee?

She played yesterday.

Who did they play yesterday?

Who did they play yesterday?

 

 

They had a round robin event this week at the high school where several teams came and played different teams. I believe that Rockcastle, Whitley, Monticellio, Somerset, Pulaski, and Southwestern all played games. I know that Southwestern beat Rockcastle, Pulaski and Somerset. It was some good games to watch and to see the girls play with alot of different combinations. I believe every school involved has positive results.

Who did they play yesterday?

 

Somerset.

I believe that Southwestern will be fine next year. They won the State AAU tournament over the weekend beating some very stiff compitition. The key will be they have to stay healthy. The have a very strong starting five and only a few bench players. Devin Fothergill has improved this summer by leaps and bounds. Ashley Fowler is playing tough D and shooting lights out. Danay Fothergill is a pure shooter who this weekend played unbelievable D. Whitney Roots rebouded well and played solid inside D. And Stephanie Salyers was a force inside she will be tough to stop this year.

Wow thats great. Congrats. Southwestern, Lincoln and Wayne all should be at the top of the region next year. Wayne picking up the 6' 3" big girl and the other transfer from Cumberland County should really help them. That district is gonna be a killer. Monticello is also very good.

Big talk out of Southwestern is that Stephanie Salyers will be moving out of state. I am trying to find more details. This will hurt Southwestern tremendously.

Wow that is a huge loss for Coach Rice and the Lady Warriors. Where is she moving to? Parents get another job? She signed with Morehead State right?

 

Anyway, good look to a very good player. Keep us updated.

Yes she has verbally commited to Morehead State. I have no other details yet.
