It is opening night for the William Penn women’s basketball team. The Statesmen take on 21st ranked Columbia, Missouri Wednesday night (11/11) on the road. Statesmen Coach Steve Williamson talks about his team’s progress.
“We’re a little banged up right now. We’re a very, very young team. We only have three girls coming back that actually played a lot of minutes for us last year: Bailey Reardon, Brittany West and Madi Rogan. Unfortunately, Madi Rogan is out until Christmas because she has a torn MCL. And then one of our top recruits we brought in, a really good shooter from a junior college in Nebraska, Lakyla Moore, she’s out with a messed up ankle. So we’re not starting off the year on the best of notes.”
The Statesmen women open their season with seven consecutive road games. Your first chance to see the Statesmen women will be December 2 against Peru State.
