Women’s Basketball Team

The Quinsigamond Community College Women’s Basketball team had a season ending victory against Bristol Community College to end its season on a high note. QCC’s Kayla Morrison powered the Wyverns to a 43-31 win. The team finished out its season 4-9 and according to Coach Gabriel Santner, the players made huge strides during the season.

“It’s been awesome to see these women come together. We taught some of our players from the ground up. We also had a couple of players who were skilled and they also improved,” Coach Santner said. “Our players were so impressive. They all were full-time students (a requirement to play) and they all also have jobs.”

Coach Santner said the players all put in a lot of practice time and even got together on their own to practice. The women’s team travels to every away game with the men’s team, which adds comradery.

“Men’s Coach Tishaun Jenkins has been very helpful and it’s been great learning from him too,” Coach Santner said.

Assistant Coach Mikayla Singas, a former player from Fitchburg State University (currently attending Worcester State University) has also made a big difference for the team, according to Coach Santner.

“She’s a really good basketball player and she’s scrimmaged with them a lot. It was great to have her,” he said.

Men’s Basketball Team
