have success.” Also back is Rachel Jakel. The ninth-grader averaged four points, five rebounds and three steals per game last season.

Johanna Braun. A decent start is a possibility. RCW opens Jan. 15 at Russell-Tyler-Ruthton, a winnable game. Then, they are host to Minneota on Jan. 18. The Vikings were 31-1 last season. Then, it’s a Jan. 21 game at Yellow Medicine East in Granite Falls. The Jaguars lost to the Sting 63-50 on Jan. 3 last season.

end the season 8-20 and on an uptick. The Wolverines hope to build on that momentum with a much more experienced squad. “We return four starts and a lot of playing time this year,” said Shaun Condon, who is in his fourth season as head coach and has a 31-47 record. “We return all three of our all-conference players. “After a rough start to last year, we made strides toward the end of the year.” The four starters back are: Ella Bourne (5-5, jr., PG); Gabby Randt (5-11, jr., F); Alison Koenen (5-7, sr., F) and Kaisa Jaenisch (5-6, sr., G). Only guard Kate Hultgren has graduated. Bourne and Randt were All-Camden Conference selections. Jaenisch was an honorable-mention. Bourne led the Wolverines with 10.4 points per game and 79 steals.
She averaged 2.7 assists per game and is a threepoint threat who made 56 of 195 from long range (28.7%) last year. Randt averaged 9.6 points and a team-leading 8.0 rebounds per game with 2.6 assists and 2.7 blocks. Jaenisch (7.6 ppg, 3.0 repbg, 3.0 apg) and Koenen (3.6 ppg, 5.4 rpg) will be depended upon for continued improvement. Players to watch include Kylee Kimpling (5-9, jr., G); Elsie Sumner (5-11, jr., F), Brynn Lozinski (5-7, jr., F) and Sydney Thein (5-8, so., G). Kimpling (2.9 ppg, 4.2 rpg), Sumner (2.7 ppg, 3.3 rpg), Lozinski (0.5 ppg, 0.7 rpg) and Thein (2.1 ppg, 1.5 rpg) were all versity contributors last year for a team that averaged 45.8 points per game, shooting 29.2 percent from the field and 49.2 percent from the free-throw line. Condon is optimistic about continued improvement. “This group is tough,” he said. “And I know they put a lot of time over the summer working on their game.”
