After a season spent watching and learning, Courtney Oleson may have a great opportunity this season with the Lady Pilots. With a lineup that included Hanna Rishacrds, Natalie Young, Paula Stout and Andrea Selent, the post and forward position was dominated by the experienced leaders. Courtney's opportunities are very evidant this season as the Bethel women have only two players on the roster standing six foot or taller in Brittany Cook (6-0) and Sarah Clark (6-3).Oleson's ability to grasp the playing style and adjust to the physical nature of college basketball could be key for the Lady Pilots this season.
"Courtney is trying to overcome some early adversity this season so she can get to full strength. Once she gets healthy and into basketball shape, I am hoping for some great things from her this season. She will need to help us in the rebounding area and become a scoring threat for us in the paint," said Coach Jody Martinez.
Oleson is determinded to be productive this season and help contribute for the Lady Pilots on the floor. "This season is going to be a great year - a season to remember. Bring it on," exclaimed Courtney!
