Ewu Women’s Basketball Glance

Facts

Coach: Jocelyn Pfeifer (first year)

Assistant coaches: Anna West, Travis King

1996 record: 5-21, 2-14 (Big Sky, 8th, tie)

Players to watch: So. Tracy Ford (5-10 F); So. Julie Moore (6-0 So.); So. Shea Olson (6-3 C).

Key newcomers: Jr. Courtney Horner (5-7 G); Jr. Jaime Haworth (5-7 G).

Bonus points: Pfeifer, a 1985 Post Falls High graduate, brings to the job new assistants West, a former assistant at Southern Utah, and King, a guard on the men’s team the past two seasons. .. Quisha Galloway of Walla Walla CC, one of three walk-ons, should get a lot of minutes.

Outlook: The Eagles lost their top four players (in minutes played) and that leaves Ford (University High ‘95) with the most experience. The sophomore guard averaged 18.9 minutes per game last year. … Pfiefer enters with a refreshing attitude and stresses team play. But will her approach be enough to overcome the team’s deficiencies?
