COACH: Rick Clark, 27th year
LAST YEAR: 16-4, lost in semifinals
RETURNING STARTERS: 5
IMPACT PLAYERS: Nicole Taylor, so., C; Meredith Reid, sr., F; Laney Yeomelakis, sr., G; Emma Clark, jr., G; Stephanie Gallagher, so., F; Hana Carey, sr., F; Kim Rigano, sr., G
OUTLOOK: The Wildcats appear to be one of the top teams in the WMC, a great combination of inside-outside balance and depth. The 6-foot Taylor, who led the team in scoring, rebounding and blocked shots last year, is one of the league’s top players as a sophomore. She combines with the 6-foot Reid to provide a powerful inside game. The guards are smart and athletic, allowing the Wildcats to play an up-tempo game when needed.
