This season the Lady Vikings had a tough start to the season with an opening record of 2-5, but finished the season extraordinarily well, earning a trip to the AAAA District ONe playoffs and a number of unbelievable wins along the way including: beating undefeated Upper Dublin on a last second shot, making a clutch three pointer to send the game into overtime against Norristown, and charging back to beat PW in the final 7 seconds of the game.  This season was a constant fourth quarter battle, playing to multiple overtime victories, the girls team seemed to never give up. The Upper Merion Lady Viking basketball team developed a new confidence mirroring their team motto: “no fear.” Words also echoed by senior captain Katherine Bailey who always reminded her team “I believe in us.”

The team was always spirited, supportive and appreciated each other’s accomplishments and contributions to the team, even the smallest ones. The team will always remember the unbelievable buzzer beaters, the crazy pre-game rituals and the never-ending wall sprints. The toughest times of the season brought the greatest victories. We will always remember Nikki Briskin, Liz Botto and Gabby Legendre’s incredible hard work and effort everyday at every practice along with 3-year starter Katherine Bailey whose motivation and energy was the spark that lit the fire during each game. Regie Robinsons overall 408 points on the the season was unforgettable along with Anna Davis’s furious defense that helped the Lady Vikings pull out each close game.
