The Lady Tigers finished as one the top teams in the 5th region and almost made it to the Sweet 16 state tournament last season. They replaced three senior starters who were key contributors over the last few years, but I think this team has some talent and will be at the top of the region once again when it is all said and done. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Last Season Results: </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Record: 25-7</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>19th District Runners-Up (9-3)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>5th Region Runner-Up (7-3)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Projected Starting Lineup:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"style":{"elements":{"link":{"color":{"text":"var:preset|color|primary"}}}},"textColor":"primary","fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-primary-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size">[player_tooltip player_id='961289' first='Ella' last='Buckman']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2023-2024 Stat Line:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2028 Fr, 5'8", Guard - 17.7ppg, 3.2rpg, 46% fg, 43% 3pt, 79% ft</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ella is the top freshman in state for a reason. She is a fierce competitor who can deliver from anywhere on the floor and can also make her presence felt defensively. Ella had a terrific AAU season with [program_tooltip program_id='712592' first='Kentucky' last='Premier'] EYBL 14U and picked up a D1 offer along the way. Bright future and big things ahead for her this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"style":{"elements":{"link":{"color":{"text":"var:preset|color|primary"}}}},"textColor":"primary","fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-primary-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size">[player_tooltip player_id='688046' first='Kadence' last='Livers']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2023-2024 Stat Line:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025 Sr, 5'7", Guard - 10.6ppg, 3.3rpg, 38% fg, 33% 3pt, 63% ft</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kadence is an exceptional athlete who can score from all three levels and lock-up on the defensive end. She is very coachable, works hard on her craft, and is a leader in all aspects. She is coming off of a strong AAU season with Kentuckiana Hoops and is a player that will indeed play at the collegiate level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"style":{"elements":{"link":{"color":{"text":"var:preset|color|primary"}}}},"textColor":"primary","fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-primary-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size">[player_tooltip player_id='1055429' first='Rowan' last='Walls']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2023-2024 Stat Line:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025 Sr, 5'5", Guard - 8ppg, 3.7rpg, 43% fg, 31% 3pt, 61% ft</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rowan is a smart player who can be trusted in close game situations and an experienced guard that provides much needed leadership.
