Girls basketball preview: Beavercreek
This is another in a series of capsules previewing area high school basketball for the 2009-10 season:
BEAVERCREEK
Coach: Ed Zink, 35th season (635-165)
2008-09 record: 21-3 (9-1 Greater Western Ohio Conference)
Returning starters
Sara Kocian, Sr. G/F, 5-7
Sammy Haddix, Sr. G/F, 5-7
Erin Walsh, Sr. C/F, 5-9
Notable
The Beavers lost a couple of key players, including Mikaela Ruef, who went to Stanford after averaging 14 points and 11.9 rebounds per game last season. Walsh is the top returner, as she averaged 7.7 points and 3.1 points while falling in behind Ruef and Emily Zimmerman on the scoring and rebounding averages. “We have our work cut out for us,” Zink said. The Beavers will try to overcome their lack of height with shooting ability, which Zink says has been going well so far for them in practice. Kocian is the most experienced player, as she will begin her third season as a starter.

Have known Ed Zink since we were in class together in second grade at Shaw Elementary. He is a coaching genius. He will develope a strategy to get the very best out of his team, win or lose.
