4 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL 2010-2011 2010-11 SEASON PREVIEW The 2010-11 season represents a new beginning for the Grove City College women’s basketball team this winter as Michelle Bruns takes over as the program’s sixth all-time head coach. She inherits a program that features four seniors and three other returning letterwinners from a 12-win season last winter. Overall, Grove City returns three starters, includ- ing two-time First Team All-Presidents’ Athletic Con- ference selection Christine Slater. A 5-foot-9 senior forward, Slater ranks eighth all- time at Grove City with 1,127 career points. In 2009-10, she led the conference in scoring at 16.0 points per game. She ranked second in the con- ference in rebounding at 8.8 per game. Slater also led Grove City in assists (57) and three- point goals (33). She is a three-year starter. Grove City returns its starting backcourt in 5-5 jun- ior guard Megan Gebrosky and 5-4 sophomore guard Leah Gibson. Gebrosky started all 26 games in 2009-10 and av- eraged 7.9 points per game. She fired in 28 three-point- ers. S Meanwhile, Gibson started all 26 games as a rookie EASON and finished second on the team in scoring at 8.7 points per game. P REVIEW Senior Jenna Johnston is a three-year letterwinner for Grove City and will compete for a full-time starting spot this winter. She recorded 49 assists and will likely start again this winter. Three senior letterwinners will battle for starting spots this year: 5-7 guard Megan Gibson, 5-6 guard/ forward Jenna Johnston and 5-11 forward Alison Wells. Megan Gibson played in 24 games as a reserve in 2009-10. She is a two-year letterwinner and can play a variety of spots on the floor. Johnston appeared in all 26 games last year, in- cluding one start. She will look to provide rebounding and additional scoring punch for the Wolverines. Wells led the team in blocked shots in her first sea- son at Grove City. She has an inside track to start at one of the frontcourt positions. Also back is sophomore letterwinner Alicia Maust, who will look to break into the rotation after playing in eight games as a freshman. Grove City will also look to receive contributions from several newcomers this year, including 6-0 se- nior forward Inge Rasmussen, 5-11 freshman forward Hannah Jo Coneby, 5-10 freshman guard/forward Annie Senior Christine Slater is a two-time First Team All- Wells and 5-9 freshman forward Sarah Cessar.
