The
2012-13 Island Trees girls basketball season is well underway. With an overall record
of 6-4 and 4-1 in league play,
the team continues to improve.
While on most nights the team is
anchored by the excellent offensive talents of sophomore Brianna Wilson,
it is truly a collective effort on the defensive side. A tough,
physical and aggressive group, the team consistently
holds opposing teams to under 40 points in wins. In fact, a few weeks
ago in a league game, they didn't allow
Clarke
High School a single point in the third quarter.
The team
is at their best when they are moving the ball freely, as their
unselfish play becomes contagious, producing winning basketball plays
all over the court. While they continue
to take one game at a time, there is no doubt that a playoff appearance
is anticipated.
Hopefully, their hard work and preparation will
continue to produce positive results and have them primed for post
season competitions.
