Tonight we did not get the outcome that we worked so hard for. Thank you: to our families for your endless support & sacrifices. To the community for your endless support. To our alumni who helped pave the way. And thank you to our 5 seniors for your leadership & love.
You know what would be a great way to honor the legacy of Kobe & the others killed yesterday? Attend a women's basketball at your local high school or college. Kobe had become such an advocate for the women's game because of his daughters!

The final game of the season is always tough. Congrats to a great Reynoldsburg team who got the best of us tonight. Thanks to: our 2 AMAZING srs who for 4 years gave us so much, our parents who sacrifice so much for our success, & a school & community who supports us endlessly ❤️
Congrats to senior Emma Shumate who scored her 1,000 point tonight at home vs. Lancaster! We are so proud of her on this AMAZING accomplishment.

Our amazing season has officially come to an end. Love, trust, & hard work are three words that we strive to embody every season. And this year we had those in spades in large part due to the leadership of our seniors. To everyone who supported us this season THANK YOU! ❤️🏀🐾
As seasons begin student sections don't forget your school has a girls team & they too are worthy of your support. They work just as hard & shouldn't be an afterthought. If your fav NBA player goes to girls games SO CAN YOU! Thank you for attending our TED Talk. ❤️🐾💪🏼
Congrats to senior Gabriella Stare who scored her 1,000 point tonight on a corner 3 at Grove City! We are so proud of her on this AMAZING accomplishment.

In last nights victory over Upper Arlington senior Katie Shumate scored her 1,000 point on a steal and a spin move. Which seems only fitting if you have watched her play! Congrats Katie!
Tough loss to a very good Westerville South team. As the season comes to a close we are so thankful for our lone senior, Tay - who has defined what a selfless gritty leader should be like, a community that supports us like no other, & our families who do so much for us ❤️🐾🏀

Our 4 seniors led us to to a 26-2 record & an appearance in state Final 4, which is indefinitely postponed. They are selfless, hard working, & amazing leaders. They were going to have the opportunity to do something that had never been done in school history (1 of 3)

If you're a restaurant owner in one of the towns of a girls basketball final four team might we suggest finding a way to play the game(s) at your establishment. The fans are CRAVING a way to watch together!

Gwen is going to states AGAIN. In a different sport. For those of you keeping track that's states in basketball, track, & now cross country!

Newark’s Gwen Stare and Watkins Memorial’s Cameryn Wheeler qualify for state. Great seasons for the Cats and Warriors. @ Pickerington High School North
Some updates from OHSAA press conference:
-4 family members per player allowed into event it would seem
-Limited spectators will "most likely" continue through rest of winter tournaments. This goes through boys state championship games.
DISTRICT FINALS • Game 25 • Wildcats fall to Gahanna • 46-43 • Finish season 18-7 • Thank you to everyone who came out today & every day. We are the most grateful. While we came up short today we will learn & grow from this experience. There are no fans like Wildcat fans!
Went to DC. Made some memories. Had some fun. Saw some sights/museums. Won some games (& the tournament). And now we take some rest. Thanks to everyone who allowed us to make this trip!

What an outstanding opponent in Whitehall. Great game, ladies!
Final Score: 60-47

Friday's game vs Groveport has been cancelled. We finish the season 20-1. Grateful to have played 21 games & ready to play some more.
