Var girls BB 012The team has changed quite a bit from what they were last year. After losing seniors from last year and being left with only one senior this year, Aylin Cervantes-Villegas, the girls have lost some height on their team. However, they are finding ways to make up for it. The team likes to play at a high tempo and take control of the game with their energy.

The energy comes from the fun that the girls are having when they play. They have formed a very strong bond this season. They eat lunch together, dance together, and always have a fun time with each other. “This is the most fun I have ever had on a team,” says sophomore Maya Kostov. This really is a team that loves to be around each other.

Teamwork has become the strong suit of the team as it not only helps with passing and work rate, but also defense. In their most recent game, they held Cicero Prep to only nine points. The girls are a really exciting team and great to watch. So, come out and support your Lady Knights as they start to play their most important games of the season against their region.
