Playing behind five senior starters last season did a lot of things for Bekah Basinger. Being able to watch, learn and even play with the veteran squad brought invaluable experience. Perhaps an even greater influence was left on the motivation she had going into this past summer and this new season and now Basinger is ready to pick up where those before her left off.
As a freshman, Bekah was named to the MCC All Freshman team after a season in which she was a key player for the Lady Pilots off the bench. With her ability to score by atacking the basket and shooting behind the arc, the Lady Pilots are counting on bif things from Basinger this season.
"Bekah had a great freshman year for us last season. She finished runner-up Newcomer of the Year in the conference last season and she played a major role for last year's 31-4 team. Her off-season training is paying off and she is focused on having a great sophomore year," said Coach Jody Martinez.
"I am very excited for this season. I think we have the talent and ability to be very successful and prove everyone wrong. This is not a rebuilding year," said Bekah.
2007-2008 (31-4)
Appeared in all 35 games and was a major spark off the bench for the Lady Pilots. Scored 171 points and was named to the MCC All Freshman Team.
