OUTLOOK
Welch girls basketball returns everyone from a 19-6 team and adds depth to a roster that remains young. Head coach Shawn Goodwin expects a group with no seniors, three juniors, three sophomores and six freshmen.
Hadley Chenoweth (5-6, So.) headlines the returning group after averaging 16.0 points and 5.0 steals as a freshman. She earned Lucky 7 Conference MVP recognition, establishing herself as a significant contributor early in her high school career. Her scoring and defensive production provide clear building blocks for the upcoming season.
Whitley Goodwin (5-10, Jr.) supplies another established backcourt presence after averaging 7.0 points and 3.0 steals. Her size on the perimeter gives Welch a different option alongside Chenoweth. Shawn Goodwin also identifies her as a team leader and positive example for teammates, making her experience especially valuable on a roster without seniors.
Anna Villa (5-7, Jr.) provides another returning scoring option at forward after averaging 11.0 points last season. Her production gives Welch an experienced contributor at a different position, helping spread the offensive responsibilities across the lineup. Adalyn McCord (5-11, So.) adds another double-figure scorer after averaging 10.0 points. Goodwin is encouraged by her continued development and believes she has the potential to become an important interior presence.
Marley Goodwin (5-7, Fr.) is among the incoming players listed in the team’s submission. The broader freshman class will help increase the available depth, an area Shawn Goodwin believes can allow Welch to do more than it has in recent seasons. Assisted by Ashley Chenoweth, Goodwin has a familiar group with established scoring and defensive contributions.
