I am going to have to strongly disagree with you pimpdaddy. The upcoming seniors at century are probably the most underrated group in the state. As freshman, they only lost to BHS and took second at the end of the year tournament. As sophomores, they went undefeated, won the end of the year tournament and only had one game that was within ten points; otherwise they blew teams out by at least twenty. This year they lost one game in the WDA. Their overall record since they have started playing for Century is 51-5 and they've scored over 1,000 points as a team every year. Anyone who has gone to watch them would see that they have fantastic ball movement and play aggressive, full court, in your face defense, something that is becoming a rare thing to see these days. One might argue they are more exciting to watch then the varsity on given nights. Unfortunetly, these girls rarely get a chance to prove themselves. However, they can score no matter how much time is left in the game when they are finally allowed to go in. Jessie Steinwand hit a 3-pointer to beat the shot clock against Dickinson in the opening round of the WDA tournament and Stacy Peterson had a beautiful score under the basket against Williston in the WDA championship game. If these girls continue to play their game, they will be just fine and so will the Patriots. Make my words, these girls will surprise A LOT of people.
Are you serious?? Did you watch scrub time the end of the WDA champ game? The century juniors looked like 8th graders. How many of the real playmakers on the old teams you mentioned are still on the century team? None, as they ran them out to give playing time to the 3 soph's.
Next years seniors will be a big let down from this years.
Yes I am serious and I did watch the WDA championship game-I wouldn't be saying all this if I couldn't back it up. haha Here are the playmakers that will be seniors next year.
1.Tyler Lorras-started half the year when Madi Buck was hurt and is one of the first off the bench at the post position.
2.Jordan Adolf-also one one of the first off the bench, this time as a guard
3.Jessie Steinwand-plays great denfense, can knock down the 3 ball and passes well
4.Stacy Peterson-great moves inside and great ball movement
5.Courtney McDonald-quick and scrappy. can knock down the shot and distribute the ball well.
6. Jenna Wood-this girl has come a long way and has a strong post presence inside.
I'm not trying to say that this next years seniors will come in and replace this years like nothing happened. I'm not foolish, I know a class like this is very hard, if not impossible to replace ever, let alone in one year. All I am trying to say is next years seniors are a very capable group who will be able to hold their own and make a name for themselves when given the chance.
