Dallas 117, Coughlin 66 DEC. 4 — Alyssa Retzena and Kira Szulborski scored four first-place finishes apiece to put Dallas past Coughlin. Kendra Gouse, Rachel Mar- tin and Hillary Smith each had mark. Thomas achieved the feat last season, and Wentko, Hardwick and Lacey all have a shot to accomplish it this year. Those four players will com- bine with King to form a po- tent, but unselfish starting line- up, one in which players do not fear giving up the ball for the good of the club. “If someone is hot, you just get them the ball,” said Hard- wick. “No one’s selfish. No one’s out there to get points. We play the best when we play as a team.” That team-oriented philoso- phy will carry beyond the start- ing lineup. Junior guard Cory Patton and junior forward Megan Savage will get the chance to make critical contri- butions off the bench. Sophomores Cassie Snyder, Robin Razawich and Lisa Gia- cometti and junior Kristen Evans may all see varsity play- ing time as well. we all play together.” Noon said the squad will rely more on speed than size this season. But with five starters who have played together for many years, the Mountaineers may depend on another factor as well — instinct. “We know where we are on the court just because we've been playing together for so long,” Thomas said, “and we're all like best friends on and off the court. Some teams don’t have that, so that definitely helps us.” Dallas sported a 3-0 record through its first three games of exhibition play. The Mo taineers knocked off last ye Class A state runner-up, Mari- an Catholic, 54-53 on Nov. 29 and beat the defending District 2 4A champ, Abington Heights, 72-39 on Dec 2.

He coached boys basketball at the junior high level for 15 years and served two years as a boys var- sity head coach. But as he begins his reign over the Lehman girls team, he inherits a roster that features only three players with signifi- cant varsity experience. Lizzy Martin, the club’s lone senior, leads the way. A former letter-winner, she’ll start at guard. Junior Jodi Tripler and versatile sophomore Sheree Horvath both return to spear- head the inside attack. Coombs and 5’9” junior cen- ter Jessica Turak round out the starting lineup. Other players who will see action . include forward Sam Krygier, sophomore guard Jill Chocallo, freshman guard Tina Watkins and forward Katharina Nockemann, an exchange stu- dent from Germany. “Our goals are to make the district playoffs and win a play- gether since sixth grade,” said junior center Jessica Turak. “And our freshmen work really hard.” The Black Knights have worked hard in the community as well. They helped provide food for an underprivileged family at Thanksgiving. They also plan to adopt a set of twin children from a financially dis- advantaged family for Christ- mas and present them with food and gifts. “It’s a nice bunch of kids and they like being around “@® other,” Spencer said. Yet, more than anywhere else, the Lehman girls may find themselves most united on the basketball floor. That’s where they will join together and try to surprise any doubters. It’s where they will try to prove they can play the role of con- tenders. “Nobody’s expecting any- thing from us, so I think that makes us want to win even Tomko and Amanda Thompson eringer (160), Joe Lambert three wins for the Moun Off game,” Spencer said. more,” Martin seid. ‘Weie a all played well taineers.
