Faith Lutheran Girls Basketball 2012-2013 Capsule

Head coach: Jennifer Karner, seventh season

2011-12 record: 14-12 (11-5 Northwest)

Returning letter winners (starters): Seven (four)

Top players: F/C Taylor Hammer (Sr.), G/F Sam Leonard (Sr.), G Julia Benko (Sr.)

Outlook: Leonard is back after averaging 9.8 points per game last year, and should get help from both Hammer (5.8 ppg) and Benko (7.8 ppg, 3.8 assists per game).

The Crusaders were more than competitive last season, qualifying for the Class 4A Sunset Region playoffs and return four starters this year.

"The team looks to again visit the postseason in the new Division I-A with high hopes of going deep into the playoffs," Karner said.
