And despite losing most of their offense to graduation, head coach Allen Leigey sees no reason why the Lady Tide can't make it to the district final again this season.
"I told them I can get them to the district finals," he said. "They're going to have to win the district final. As long as we don't show those young jitters, and the girls step up and play like I know they're capable of playing, we should be in the double-A district finals."
