Players from both the Varsity and Junior Varsity basketball teams reflect on a strong and rewarding year as the season wraps up.
One standout player, freshman Loren Witcher, has impressed with her performance because she averaged 17 points per game.
On her basketball shoes, Witcher has Psalms 46:5. “It says ‘God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early’,” Witcher said. “It reminds me that God is always with me and will guide me.”
“My motivation is making my mom and dad proud and remembering that God won’t let me fail if I follow in His steps,” she said. Witcher’s faith and family are what keep her grounded and focused during tough games.
Allan Plummer, a Varsity player, also reflected on her season. “It was a rocky start, but it was worth it,” she said. Plummer averages eight points per game. She stays motivated by her mother’s encouragement and by praying for the team before each game.
“I pray for my teammates before our games, and I have a very motivational mother,” she said.
Both Witcher and Plummer make it known that the power of faith and family as their key motivators, and their performances this season prove that these values have paid off.
With a strong season behind them, the Chatham Girls Basketball team is looking forward to even more success in the future.
