Led by a good group of six senior returnees, Roy-Hart is looking to rebound from last year’s 2-10 Niagara-Orleans League girls basketball season.

That veteran contingent includes Lexie Lovewell, Maddie Fry, Emily Metz, Ashley Hill, Meghan Washington and RayLynn Chraston.

The Lady Rams are also looking to sophomores Mallory Steiner, Rileigh McCabe and Shelby Wolf.

“We’ve got a good mix of experience and fresh legs so we’re looking for a good season,” said Coach Grace Swick.

Roy-Hart’s graduation losses included Ellie Todd, Delaney Draper, Sophia LaPort, Skyler Christopher and Maddy Glena.

The Lady Rams will open the season by hosting their annual tournament on November 30 and December 1. The Lady Rams will face Holland in the first round. The N-O opener will then be December 14 against Albion.
