Coach B.J. Feuerhelm: What a great week for the Girls Basketball Program. To go on the road and get our first away win over Kinkaid* in program history is a big deal and these girls deserve all the credit! As we close in on the completion of our season, we look to take on a very talented Houston Christian team at home, followed by a trip to Austin to take on the always-tough St. Andrew's Highlanders. The girls are ready and focused and understand what is at stake for us.
* The first and only win was at home during the 2007-08 season.
