Both Chase County basketball teams saw their season end at the Class 2A Marion sub-state, but there were positives to take away from the season for both teams.
A new-look Chase County Lady Bulldogs basketball team is hoping to combine winning experience with contributions from plenty of fresh faces in a season that has already seen the impact of COVID-19 in just itâs first few weeks.
âWe have two starters back in [senior] Britney Schroer and [junior] Kaylee Simpson, and then we have a bunch of girls that really donât have a lot of experience,â said Head Coach Ron Slaymaker. âThatâs not going to be an excuse for us, though, thatâs just the way things are. As I told them after our first game, weâre a little bit of a work in progress. Weâre going to have to make some adjustments â which weâve started to do little by little â but there are a lot of adjustments yet to make for us to be a truly competitive team.â
