Jenna is a superb athlete. She has a great vertical leap and has a nice shot to go along with it.

'Vert' is, like, straight to the top, like a vertical leap.

Willie Smith is just a superb athlete. It's unreal what he does on the court. It amazes me the more I see him play. He does so many things for us. He's just a great kid and we were very fortunate.

Those two are natural-born leaders, and they're only sophomores. As a credit to both of them, they've handled that challenge very well. Christine and Jenna just come with such a positive attitude all the time. That's a constant in their lives, a positive attitude. They listen and then they try to do exactly what you've asked them to do.

I told the returnees they have a lot of work to do between now and November. The OCC is tough, but now they've all had a taste of it. Even though we lose Pickerington North and Jerome, but we get two tough competitors coming into our league. We have to be ready for that.

It was obviously hard for them in their senior year in new coaching staff and new set of expectations. I thanked them for a great season. We have four super people. They really worked hard. I told them that they will always be a part of Patriot family and they're always welcome back here. I couldn't ask for much more out of them.
