COACH’S OUTLOOK: White and Bell have four of their top seven players back

from last year’s unbeaten Sunset League championship team, including

Zylstra, the league’s MVP as well as an All-County selection. She already

is the school’s career leader in blocked shots. “I think we’ll be a very

athletic squad, very up tempo,” White said. “We should run and press a

lot, but depth could be a question, though. I think we have a chance,

however, to repeat as league champ.”
