Lady Norsemen Start the Season with a Bang

The Lady Norsemen opened their season on November 15th at the Somonauk Breakout Tournament. Newark’s first matchup was against the Serena Huskers. The Ladies then played the Plano Reapers. On Wednesday Newark faced the Seneca Irish. The Lady Norsemen’s last game of the tournament was against Immaculate Conception. Newark finished 2nd in the tournament based on free throw percentage.

The Lady Norsemen’s first home game was against Aurora Christian. They then traveled to LaMoille. The girls had their second home game against Indian Creek. “I am looking forward to the challenge of forming a whole new team and being successful. The first two weeks of practice have been the most fun I have had in a long time. The girls play hard and are eager to learn. This year we will be more of an open court team, both full court and half court.” said Dale Skelton. “I am looking forward to being able to see if we can compete with the top of the conference. Coaching a young team is hard at first, but rewarding once they understand” said assistant coach, Brian Holman.
