A group of middle school and junior high school girls have been putting in some extra time on their basketball skills since the middle of April. Twelve rising seventh and eighth graders, under the guidance and coaching of Raymond Siuta, began practicing twice a week in April and worked through June before attending team camps where they played 17 games in seven days. "These girls have put in a lot of time when they didn't have to," said Siuta about the sacrifice of time on summer break.
