 After starting last year's six and six, the Fossing Girls basketball team won 17 straight games on route to the Section 8A title game. Their Greyhounds lost to Sacred Heart and fell short of their hopes of a state tournament birth and the team is now one and one on their young season this year. The Greyhounds returned all but three players from a season ago and with a lot of varsity experience coming back, they expect to take that next step forward and make it to state. We got a little taste of it last year so that means we're all willing to push that much harder and just that much more just to get past that point and actually win that game. It's a great goal of ours and it's going to take some hard work but it's something that we all want and we're going to buy in and I think it's a attainable goal for us. I think it's going to take some time for our chemistry to work together. Again, the more court times some of these younger players that are coming in and starting or coming off the bench where they haven't before, it's going to take them some time to develop and get used to it. But hopefully we can get better each and every practice each and every week so that by the end of the season we are playing our best basketball.
