allow caught changed coached coaches fit foot girl offensive personnel run systems time trying utilize
One thing is that we have changed the offensive systems to fit our personnel at each place. You can't do the same thing all the time and I think some coaches get caught up in trying to run the same system when their personnel doesn't necessarily allow it. Before this season, I never coached a girl over 5 foot 9 , so this is a little different and we made adjustments to utilize our height.

NA is a great facility to play at. What I like most about it though is that we don't have to travel that far to play our first state game.

I don't think it'll be a big deal for us to be out there playing for a state championship. They've been dealing with that bull's-eye from day one.

Kittanning is big, they're 5-10, 5-10, and 5-11 across the front. They just sit in a 1-3-1 zone and make it tough to get the ball inside.
