2016-17 Virgin Valley Girls Basketball Capsule Preview

VIRGIN VALLEY

Head coach: Chimane Creer, seventh season

2015-16 record: 13-12 (11-3 Sunrise, second)

Returning letter winners (starters): Seven (four)

Top players: G/F Briana Todd (Sr.), G/F Emma Barnum (Sr.), F/C Bernice Fiso (Sr.)

Outlook: After finishing second in the Sunrise League last year, the Bulldogs return seven letter winners, including four starters.

Todd (12 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists per game), Barnum, 7 ppg, 5 rpg, 2.5 apg, 2 steals per game) and Fiso (9 ppg, 8 rpg, 2 blocks per game) should be among the leaders on a squad that appears to be primed for more success.

“This is going to be a fun year for Virgin Valley High School,” Creer said. “We are excited to see where this group of seniors will take us. We have a good nucleus returning and feel that the incoming players will help with the success this year.

“We expect to be one of the top contenders in our league.”
