The Bethlehem Christian Academy girls basketball program is looking to take positive steps during the upcoming 2013-2014 season.

Coach Mike Elmankabady is entering his second year with the Lady Knights and said the program will benefit from the summer activities the team recently completed.

A big part of BCA’s summer was a trip to Presbyterian College. During the camp, the Lady Knights battled North Cobb Christian, a GHSA program, to a two-point contest. That performance helped skyrocket the players’ confidence, their coach said.

“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.”
