Lady Knights get jump on upcoming season

“That was encouraging to see,” Elmankabady said. “Our numbers are also way up. We have been working with 15 players and that helps in so many ways.”

Some of the top returning players this upcoming season will include Ravyn Harrison, Sarah Beth Adams and Ariel Jackson.

“Ravyn is our leader,” Elmankabady said. “She will be a senior and we are expecting a lot from her.”

Adams, despite missing time with an injury last year, was still one of the team’s top scorers. Jackson returns to direct the offense at point guard.

“We definitely have a good group coming back,” Elmankabady said. “This was the first time any of our girls teams worked during the summer. That is a big step for us.”
