Girls basketball preview: Stebbins
This is another in a series of capsules previewing area high school basketball for the 2009-10 season:
STEBBINS
Coach: Suzanne Loudner, first season
2008-09 record: 5-16 (4-12 Central Buckeye Conference)
Returning starters
Ja’Monica Orton, Sr. C/F/G, 6-1
Autumn Johnson, Sr. G, 5-5
Luvenia Davis, Sr. F, 5-7
Stephanie Eldred, Jr. F, 5-9
Notable
Stebbins’ fate begins with Orton, who will join the University of Mississippi basketball team next season. She’s one of six seniors who has been playing with the group since sixth grade, which builds comfort. “She can make passes you don’t think are possible,” said Loudner, who is moving up to head coach after five years as an assistant. She can also play any position on the floor. So how does Loudner choose? “It’s a matter of who needs a breather,” she said. Orton has developed strong moves in the post, some that seem to come naturally. With that kind of player and four starters returning, many expect Stebbins to improve on last season’s record.

Good luck Coach Loudner - you will need it without Rex as head coach.
