With just one loss in 16 games, Fremd's girls basketball team has clearly shown it is a top contender when it comes to the Class 4A state playoffs.
The Vikings, who took second in one of the toughest Christmas tournaments in the state , have plenty of players who will move on to play college basketball, including senior Kace Urlacher, who has committed to IUPUI .
"It's good to be a good team," said Coco, already making a big impact in her first varsity season."Rankings are always important but obviously when you get on the floor that's the most important thing." "I feel like we do play alike," said Coco, who plans to study criminal justice with hopes of working in the FBI field."I went to a middle school where defense was really, really important," Coco said."So I would probably say defense is my favorite part of the game because that also created offense.""It's a lot less stressful for our mother," Kace said."Because she doesn't have to go to two different games.
"Kace took over the fourth quarter of the Kenwood game," Yates said."She made a defensive play on about every possession that helped change the outcome of our game.""They create chaos on the defensive end of the floor," Yates said."Their ability to anticipate your next move is as good as I have coached in my time here at Fremd. They jump passing lanes, strip ballhandlers, and generally make our defense go.
Fremd's Maddy Fay and Ella Todd along with Hersey's Katy Eidle joined Benet's Lenee Beaumont and Geneva's Cassidy Arni on that elite group of five.
