Rocket Girls Basketball

By Student Reporter Brittni Emperley

The 2009-2010 season of girls basketball started on Wednesday November 18th. After two successful practices all girls participating are starting to get into the routine. With a team of over thirty, the girls this year will have to work hard to earn a spot on JV, Varsity, or the new freshman team. This is the first year in a while Cedar Grove-Belgium has had enough girls to fill a freshman team’s roster. The freshman team, as of now, has 6 games on their schedule and is expecting more.

Varsity still has a full bench with ten players, nine returning from last year. The team also has a new player, Hannah Kaul, coming from Ozaukee. All ten players are returning letter winners. Varsity has started to learn plays from their new offensive coach, Mr.Coopman, and is getting ready for their upcoming scrimmage. Mr.Coopman is new to the coaching staff and will be helping Mr.Ketterhagen this year on the offensive side.

The varsity team will be hosting their first scrimmage next Tuesday in the high school gym starting at 5:30. All the players and coaches are very excited for this upcoming year and are ready to play to their full exponential. We wish luck to the girls basketball teams and hope for a winning season. Go Rockets!
