This Week’s Highlights…

Parkside women cagers have lofty goals . . . . . . . 4-5 In her 10th season as head coach, Jenny Kenesie hopes to lead the Rangers to a place they’ve never been before – an NCAA Tournament Region championship. Four seniors with plenty of experience – guard Jadee Rooney, forward Amy Selk, guard Kaitlyn Bettiga and forward Brittany Beyer – are starting for Parkside this season, each of whom started all 31 games last season.

Peak performances . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16-18

Team success is impossible without individuals rising to the occasion, and there were plenty of team members who did just that recently. Connor Brown and Thomas Pinnow came up big for Southport Bank in the championship game of the Little Leaguers of Kenosha fall season, while Jacob Ashmus scored three goals for the United FC U9 team in a win over the Serbian Soccer Club.

Teaming up for success . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19-20

Several local teams separated themselves from the pack over the past week. Deportivo Azul earned the championship of the fall session of the Adult Men’s Indoor Soccer League with a shootout victory over the Kenosha Fire, Southport Bank claimed the Little Leaguers of Kenosha fall championship with a win over SPS Dental and the United FC U9 boys Red team completed a perfect 18-0 fall season.

They’re great role models on and off the court.”

Bettiga led the nation in assist-toturnover ratio (2.79), while pacing the Rangers in steals (53) and assists (159). Beyer, who is returning from an ankle injury, enters the 2011-12 campaign sixth in school history in scoring (1,199 points).

As juniors, this quartet helped Parkside compile its best-ever GLVC record (15-3) on the way to a 24-7 overall mark and led the Rangers to the NCAA Tournament Sweet Sixteen. In 2009-10, Parkside went 23-8 and earned its first division crown.

Others expected to contribute significantly this season include

“The seniors are expected to be our leaders this year, and I’m confident they will do exactly that. They understand the value of ‘team’ and they are willing to work with the less experienced players, which will go a long way toward the development of those players.”

The seniors, each of whom started all 31 games last season, are 5-foot-9 shooting guard Jadee Rooney, 5-11 power forward Amy Selk, 5-6 point guard Kaitlyn Bettiga and 5-10 forward Brittany Beyer.

The Rangers posted a 24-7 record in 2010-11.

“To go as far as we want to go this season, things have to go your way,” Kenesie said. “You have to have some breaks and you have to stay healthy. But if you chip away day in and day out, good things will happen.

Kenesie calls this season’s nonconference schedule “as tough as it’s ever been” and expects Northern Kentucky, Indianapolis, Bellarmine and Lewis to be strong in the GLVC East.

“If you’re going to be one of the best teams in the country, you have to play against the best,” she said.

“We’ve spent the past seven or eight years trying to build a foundation and establish a tradition of improvement and success. Obviously we have our goals and expectations for this season, and with toughness, commitment, dedication and pride we can get there. We are looking forward to what we hope will be an exciting year.”
