Bailey Sieren returns after leading Keota with 106 points and 34 assists last year. Taylor Kindred, a junior, is also back following a team-high 103 rebounds. Taylor Garman and Sky Weber were regulars as well a season ago. <p style="text-align: left;">Notable returners:</p> <p style="text-align: left;">Bailey Sieren - 5.6 PPG, 4.2 RPG Macie McDonald - 3.5 PPG, 5.0 RPG Taylor Kindred - 5.3 PPG, 6.9 RPG Sky Weber - 5.1 PPG, 4.5 RPG</p> &nbsp; <hr /> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Kingsley-Pierson Panthers</strong> 20-5 last year 65.2 points scored, 51.3 points against 12 returning players</p> Kingsley-Pierson was one step from the Class 1A state tournament, falling just short in a regional championship to LeMars Gehlen. The Panthers graduated leading scorer [player_tooltip player_id="134390" first="Jayde" last="Barto"], but top rebounder [player_tooltip player_id="129080" first="McKenzie" last="Goodwin"] looks to improve upon her stellar sophomore campaign.
