Despite Injuries Eagles Soar To Austin

This is not the way it was supposed to end for 6'1 senior Kayla Tarver. Yes she made it to state however knee injuries forced her along with fellow senior Joann Modeste and sophomore Katie Navjar to miss the entire season. Tarver backed up 6'1 Carol Willie last season and their numbers almost mirrored each other so losing her could have derailed this trip

6'2 Erin Caldwell moved up from junior varsity and although still raw in many aspects, she has shown progression and if her performance off the bench in the R-3 Final 4 is any indication on what to expect in the future, she could play a major role in another version of "Twin Towers" next season

Willie on the other hand is ready to step into the spotlight not only in Austin but in the summer as well as she is among the top posts in the area for next seasons class. In the regional final, she simply went off and played the best game I've seen her play all season and if she continues to do so she will move into that high major category
