Oakton's Women's Basketball Ready to Roll
Heading into the 2003-04 season, the Oakton Community College women's basketball has reason to be optimistic, according to head coach Rich Bolinder.
"This year's strength will be balance at all positions with the ability to rebound," says Bolinder. "We have some experience this year with our three returning players."
The Raiders welcome back Erika Axibal, a 5' 7" guard who last season averaged 8.5 points and 6.2 rebounds per game, earning her a spot on the Skyway Conference All-Conference team; Carrie Geuder, a 5' 6" guard who averaged 3.8 assists last year; and Ainara Zabal, a six-foot forward who contributed with 7.8 points and 7.4 rebounds per game.
New to the team are Beth Colleran, a 5' 8" guard who brings a defensive presence; Michelle Warren, a 5' 5" guard who can also play point guard; and transfer student from Carthage College, Katie Panegasser, a 5' 10" forward who will provide an inside presence.
Rounding out the team are Nola White, a 5' 7" guard/forward; Patti Rios, a 5' 5" shooting guard; Christie Bialczak, a 5' 9" forward; and Maureen Scanlon, a 5' 9" forward.
The Raiders open the season on the road Nov. 8 at 1 p.m. when they face Rock Valley. The first home game for Oakton is at 5 p.m. on Nov. 11 against Joliet. Conference play starts Jan. 6 when the Raiders host Morton at 5:15 p.m. See complete schedule.
