Norman North girls a hot pick as break-out team in 6A
Expectations are high for a Norman North squad that is a trendy pick for the Class 6A break-through team this season.
T-Wolves’ coach Jeff Blough has all five of his starters back from last season’s 13-14 team. And not only could North make a run at the program’s first state tournament since finishing as Class 6A state runner-up in 2003, this could be the start of something big that lasts a while.
Eleven of the 15 varsity players are underclassmen and almost half are sophomores or freshmen. But even though young, the T-Wolves have a lot of experience and a lot of talent. Seniors Andee Wayne (who signed with Central Oklahoma last week) and Madison Marquardt, as well as junior Hayley Scott, were all-conference players last season. Another junior, Mariah Turner, is a Division-I recruit.
With a top-10 preseason ranking and a dominating scrimmage against No. 7 Lawton Tuesday, confidence is high.
“We played real well,” said Blough of the scrimmage. “The girls all played hard and we looked good.”
