Basehor-Linwood Girls Basketball

Fun busy week of basketball! Varsity summer league and JV summer league. Varsity participated in the Shot Clock tournament at Mill Valley HS this weekend.
Our players are showing improvement and toughness across the board! In the Shot Clock tournament we went 5-0 before losing in the championship game. Great competition this weekend.

I’ve been behind on my emails. If I missed you, let me know. Girls basketball camp is getting closer! There is no limit on campers. If an incoming 3-8th grader is interested in camp, we will find a spot for her.

Summer is around the corner! We hope to have 3-8th grade girls sign up for basketball camp!

Yesterday was signing day at BLHS and 3 of our players signed to play basketball at the next level. Congrats and we are proud of all 3 of them!

2nd picture is Alaina Schwisow and her proud parents and siblings. Alaina will attend Baker University.

Congrats to all!

Delaney Wittkop tied the single season points record for BLHS this season with 413 points! Congrats to Delaney! Delaney joins Mrs. Morrison on top of the list 🙂

We lost yesterday 47-61 to Shawnee Heights to end our season at a record of 20-6.
An awesome season lead by 5 seniors- Kinley Christopher, Edyn Jackson, Sarah McKnight, Alaina Schwisow, Alyssa Streit. We did not have any seniors last year so we’ve told this group when they were Sophomores they had to be Juniors. When they were Juniors, they had to be Seniors. Now that they were Seniors, they had to be great Seniors. 5 fabulous human beings that will be great at their next chapters of their lives.
Our team has so much to brag about this year. 1 simple example of their improvement from 1 year to the next is assists. This year as a team we had 461 assists. Last year with basically the same team we had 241.
Bobcat nation showed up for us! We are so thankful for all the support. We played so hard because of that Bobcats written on the front of our jersey.
This picture shows part of our crowd including future Bobcat players holding signs. Makes me get emotional. Our players understand the youth are watching us, little eyes are upon you. Our players are great people and they represent themselves well, they represent their family well, they represent our school and community well. I am proud of these players!

Great opportunity for our program today!
