<p class="has-medium-font-size" style="font-style:normal;font-weight:100">Trinity has all the pieces to be in the top tier of Class A and they certainly have the potential to make a State Tournamnet run. The Titans have an awesome coach, skilled ballhandlers, scrappy defenders, deadly shooters, hard workers, size/length, and 3-level scoring options. Take the Titans seriously, they are on the brink of a BIG season!</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>Nevaeh is entering her 5<sup>th</sup> season of high school basketball and has gotten progressively better each and every year. She's one of the few post players that loves to play with her back to the basket, while still having the skill set to face up from 14 feet or pop out for a 3-pointer. Defensively, she uses her length to control the paint, where her mere presence can turn away the other team's players. She's primed to have a breakout year in rebounding as well. Nevaeh is extremely passionate about the game of basketball and we expect her to be one of the top players in the state after her All-Region 4 performance last season.</em>"</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>Elly will serve as our primary ball handler this year, and we'll call on her to guard the other team's best perimeter player, just as she's done the past two years. She has a motor that never quits, which translates into steals, deflections, and a high number of rebounds for a 5'6" guard. Elly is a vocal leader on the team and usually the hardest worker in the gym. We'll need Elly to become a bigger scoring threat this season.</em>"</p>

<p>"<em>For the past 6 years, I've always said that if I wanted to record a drill and put it on YouTube, Bella would be the person to record because she's so fundamental in everything she does. Her athleticism is so natural, and it allows her to do things that others may not be able to do. Bella has the potential to take a big leap this season. We expect her to be a prime offensive weapon and make things happen when she has the ball in her hands. She's an elite volleyball player and we look forward to her bringing that level of play to the basketball court.</em>"</p>

<p>"<em>Annabel was named to the Class A All-State Second Team as a sophomore, and we expect her to take the next steps forward this season. One of the best shooters in the state, Annabel is a student of the game with strong court awareness. She also is an elite defender, especially on the ball. For Annabel to keep growing, we want to see her play a bigger role in making plays for her teammates and being even more aggressive on offense. She's incredibly talented and coachable, and the sky is the limit for this young lady.</em>"</p>

<p style="font-size:30px"><strong>With Coach Jared Scheeler</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><u>PGHD: Could you write a couple of sentences summing up last season?</u></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>Last season was a step forward for the Trinity Titans, both in style of play and in establishing our team's identity. Defense was our calling card all season long, and we intend on carrying that into the 2024-25 season. We finished last season with a 13-11 record and a 4<sup>th</sup> place finish in Region 4.</em>" </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">PGHD: <u>How did the offseason go for your team/program?</u></span></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>The Titans had a solid offseason between team camps, skills camp, weight training, and open gyms. We have really been emphasizing the importance of getting up shots during the offseason, and so many of our players put in the time to become better players and athletes.</em>"</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">PGHD: <u>Who are a few of your top players to look out for?</u></span></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>For starters, we have a guard-post combo that has the potential to be one of the best in the State. It's important that Nevaeh and Annabel continue to build chemistry to play effectively off of and with each other. Though those two comprise the bulk of our returning scoring, we have many players who are going to fill critical roles for the Titans this season. Bella is a do-it-all athlete who has yet to realize how good she can be. Elly is an All-Region caliber player solely because of her defense. Our leading JV scorer from last season, freshman Kambree Fleck, is nursing a knee injury and will likely miss this season. Right behind her were juniors [player_tooltip player_id='1052990' first='Hali' last='Henke'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1052992' first='Elizabeth' last='Schneider'], both of whom have a chance to play a big role in this year's team.</em>" </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">PGHD: <u>Who are a couple of up-and-comers to look out for in the near future?</u></span></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052990' first='Hali' last='Henke']</strong> is a 5'11" junior who has really leveled up her commitment to the game of basketball. Hali is a post who can stretch the floor with her shooting ability. We expect Hali to play a big role for the Titans this season.</em>"</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052991' first='Madison' last='Wegleitner']</strong> is a 5'9" junior who will play mostly in a power forward role. Madi is a strong athlete who has seen great success in both softball and volleyball. She'll have an opportunity to make her mark on the hardwood this winter.</em>"</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052992' first='Elizabeth' last='Schneider']</strong> is an undersized 5'8" junior post who has a knack for getting to the basket. She's one of those girls who is a thrill to have in the gym, and we look forward to watching her growth this season.</em>"</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052993' first='Myah' last='Merry']</strong> is a 5'5" junior guard who takes pride in being a bulldog on defense. She's done a nice job of enhancing her offensive game over the past few years.</em>"</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052994' first='Calli' last='Berger']</strong> is a 5'7" sophomore guard who is probably the most varsity-ready player of those who didn't dress on the varsity squad last season. We're excited to see Calli's progression after this past offseason.</em>"</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><u>PGHD: What style of basketball will your team play?</u></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>Our focus this season will be to utilize our defense to set the tone in each game. Offensively, we're focused on the basics: Court spacing, quick decisions, ball reversals, and taking care of the basketball.</em>" </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">PGHD: <u>Who do you think will be your top defender and why?</u></span></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052902' first='Elly' last='McAvoy']</strong> will frequently be called upon to guard the other team's best perimeter player. Elly really takes pride in her defense and understands that our team needs her to be a lockdown defender. Inside, Nevaeh does a tremendous job of owning the paint. She uses her length to her advantage and is a very good shot blocker.</em>"</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">PGHD: <u>What are a couple of your team goals this year?</u></span></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>We've established many goals for our team this year, but the most important is for us to be better at living in the moment and enjoying things as they happen. This includes keeping our focus on the immediate task at hand without looking too far ahead. That being said, right now our only focus is on getting better in the pre-season and preparing for Westhope-Newburg on December 6.</em>" </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><u>PGHD: Who are a couple of your top shooters?</u></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>This discussion definitely starts with [player_tooltip player_id='412033' first='Annabel' last='Scheeler'], who is one of the best shooters in the state and one of the top returning 3-point shooters with 56 made last season. We expect Annabel to make more than 35% of her three-point attempts this season after shooting 34% as a freshman and 30% last season. Her tremendous form and quick release are something to behold. Beyond Annabel, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052902' first='Elly' last='McAvoy']</strong> can shoot the rock and needs to get more shots up in games this season. <strong>Bella Kovash</strong> is also a great shooter. But don't sleep on <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052990' first='Hali' last='Henke']</strong>, as she's beaten her coach in every shooting competition they have, and her coach is a pretty good shooter!</em>" </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><u><strong>PGHD: Who are some of the top teams & players in your Region?</strong></u></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>I think that, until someone proves otherwise, Shiloh Christian is the team to beat in Region 4. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1051216' first='Emma' last='Duffy']</strong> is a tremendous point guard who makes great decisions, distributes the ball well, and is an underrated shooter. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1051229' first='Betsy' last='Hatlestad']</strong> is a player that every coach in the state would love to have on their team. Not only is she very productive on both ends of the court, she does the little things that help their team.</em>"</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>Hazen, led by their dynamic duo of <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1051389' first='Lauren' last='Doll']</strong> and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052973' first='Macey' last='Van Inwagen']</strong> will also be a threat in Region 4. Doll is a top-notch defender and one of the better ball handlers in the state. VanInwagen is a strong guard who has a broad skill set. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052988' first='Macee' last='Smith']</strong> is an undersized post who plays like she's a foot taller than she actually is and is a phenomenal rebounder.</em>" </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>Watford City was a State Tournament team last season who graduated only two players. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='379966' first='Bailey' last='Mattson']</strong>, <strong>Ady Schaff</strong>, and <strong>Fallon Sampsel</strong> are three players we'll work to minimize their production.</em>" </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1052989' first='Mickellyn' last='Walker']</strong> from Killdeer is one of the top scorers in Class A and is also productive on the boards. As a 6' guard who can shoot from 24 feet, she's a matchup problem for pretty much every team. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><u>PHD: Any last comments about the upcoming season?</u></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"<em>There's a lot of talent and a lot of great coaches this season in Region 4. As a coach, I couldn't be more excited to get rolling.</em>"</p>
