We have four girls on this team that can shoot from outside, and we have a lot of talent in the post as well.'' Flintridge Prep, ranked No.23 in the area by the Daily News, was never seriously threatened after jumping to a 17-8 lead at the end of the firstquarter.

The Lady Rebels have returned their top six scorers from a team that finished 20-5 overall and 12-0 in league last season. ``Our first goal this season is to win our sixth consecutive Prep League title, but we also want to make a postseason run,'' Fisher said. ``With the way we're playing now, we think that's a very realistic goal.'' kevin.connelly@dailynews.com (818) 713-3607 |
