what he’s seen thus far from his team during practices.

“I’m really impressed with our senior leadership this year,” he said. “Hope and Anna are talented players who work so hard on the court every day. Kaitlyn Rusch and Chen Phakitthong bring some of the same work ethic and they’ll be keys to this year’s team. Allison Wokatsch has much experience already coming into her junior year and she keeps getting better. We have a group of nice juniors and sophomores that will also compete for playing time this season.”

Marathon’s assistant coaches this year are Beth Geier, Hannah Franke, Hayley Cramer, Nicole Myszka and Chuck Baldeshwiler.
