Season Outlook/Notes:
by School's SID, Greg Peterson

This year's squad will be younger than ever before without any seniors on the team. Junior captain, K.C. Slusher (Edgewood, NM), played very well at the end of last season and will be looked upon to lead the Lady Royals from her point guard position. Junior post Laura Jacobs (Wells, MN) will also be looked upon to provide leadership on and off the court. She is a talented player who was leading the team in scoring last season before being lost for the year with a knee injury. Junior Michelle TerWisscha (Clara City, MN) was a part time starter last year and will see significant action again this season. Freshman guard Malia Siemon (Edina, MN) is an exciting player who is expected to contribute
immediately.
