The girls basketball program at Princeton High School will be jumping “feet first” into the 2017-2018 season, hosting the young but talented Worth County Lady Tigers in a 6 o’clock opening game on Tuesday, November 21st at Princeton High School (on KTTN FM 92.3).
While the pieces appear to be in place for improvement for the Lady Tigers this year, the hard work done in practice is already well underway for Coach Wade Hall and the Lady Tiger team:
Coming off a Class 3 “Final 4” appearance, the Trenton Lady Bulldogs are the heavy favorite to repeat as GRC East champions in 2017-2018, and while noting that the game with Trenton comes early in the season (December 12th), Coach Hall pointed out that for Princeton to challenge at the top of the conference, another rival school, traditionally a consistent roadblock to GRC success, will need to be dealt with:
With the anticipation of the season running at a high level for Princeton, Coach Hall knows that the biggest key to the team achieving its goals is to find the elusive consistency, particularly on offense, that has plagued past Tiger squads:
Princeton will be in the Albany Tournament during the second week of the season, with the #5 seeds playing King City on Tuesday night, November 28th at 6:15. A challenging stretch will follow into December, with PHS at North Harrison on Tuesday the 5th, Mercer on Friday the 8th, and Trenton on Tuesday the 12th, before Gallatin visits Princeton on Friday, December 15th, followed by Milan on Tuesday, December 19th.
