Wally Winslow, who directed the Libby boys for 16 seasons, is in his second year with the girls.

“The big issue for us right now is health,” Winslow said.

“We’ve had health issues ... knees, ankles ... hopefully we will get everybody healthy at the same time.”

The Loggers have three talented veteran starters back in Shannon Reny, a 6-0 senior forward/center; Jayden Winslow, a 5-10 junior guard/forward; and Khalyn Hageness, a 5-8 senior, forward.

Reny, a three-year starter, is averaging 16.9 points per game to 13.1 for Winslow, also a three-year starter.

Reny led the Loggers in scoring last season.

While Reny and Winslow are the main offensive weapons, Alli Collins, a 5-4 junior guard; Sammee Bradeen, a 5-8 junior forward; Brooklyn Rainer, a 6-2 senior center; Emma Gruber, a 5-1 junior guard; and Linsey Walker, a 5-2 junior guard, are all logging valuable court time as role players.

“We are doing a good job of executing (on offense),” coach Winslow said.

“We have the abilty to score if we are efficient. We have people who can play inside, people who can shoot from the perimeter. If we can get everything going the same night, we can put some points on the board.”

Coach Winslow said defensively there is a “good blend of size and quickness. On any given night, that comes and goes. Consistency is the big thing.”
