Fontbonne’s 2022 basketball season is underway. Last year’s team was filled with so much energy and adrenaline, from the practices, to games, and coming from both the players and coaches.
Although the intensity of the JV team always varies, we will miss the former juniors, while we welcome the new freshman. But players aren’t the only ones joining our jv team. We also have our two new coaches Brittany & Chanel.
Going to an all-girls school, I think it is good for us to have these new coaches because they can understand us more and can relate to each other better. Only a couple weeks in, and they already have taught us skills for teamwork, encouragement, and obviously new plays.
“So far everything has been going really well. I’m very excited for this season because this team has a lot of potential!” Coach Brittany says. Chanel agrees and adds, “I’m ready for a fun season, filled with lots of wins! We’ll have fun winning because winning is fun.”
In Chanel’s freshman year of college, attending Seton Hall, she scored an amazing 1600 points. Brittany not only played in college, but also has a history of coaching. Through her high school years, she’s acquired 1000 points.
As a current JV basketball player, I am definitely eager and looking forward to starting and finishing out this season with great coaches and great friends, who are even better players.
Caitrina Mullally ‘25, also on JV basketball, is more than thrilled. “So far everyone is working hard and giving so much effort. I’m looking forward to getting to know our new coaches better, and I have high expectations for our team!”
In addition, Tess Kuhlmann ‘26 shared her input as well. From a freshman's point of view, she says, “Everyone is giving 110%. The team is fun and welcoming and I’m happy to see what’s next.”
From our new coaches to our amazing team, who’s ready for JV’s new season?
