On Friday, December 2, the Blue Dragon basketball season opened with the girls' team taking on Baltic on the Bulldog's court. The Blue Dragon team flew away with the win, 63-24.
The 2022-23 GBB roster has nine players for this year's team, led by seniors Logan Bly, Raegen Altman, and Anna Jones. Juniors Jordyn Williams, Kylie Christensen, Adi Fink, and Sydney Olson join sophomores Tayler Benson and Ashley Harris to round out the team, led by Head Coach Matt Schrank and assistant coaches Bev Howe and Amber Williamson.
"I think we will do fairly well this year and try to beat our score from last year," said Head Coach Schrank to the Blue Ink's Treyton Chester. In 2021-22, the team took home the Big East Conference championship for the first time in 16 years and ended their season with an overall win-loss score of 13-9.
With their first game under their belt, the Lady Dragons challenged Tri-Valley on the home court on Tuesday (results unavailable at press time). They will play in a double-header against Chester Area during Hometown Christmas this Saturday, December 10. Junior Varsity girls are slated to begin at 11:15 a.m., and Junior Varsity Boys begin at 12:30 p.m. Varsity games will follow at 1:45 p.m. and 3:00 p.m.
