The Loyola women’s basketball team is off to a slow start this season. The Ramblers started off 1-6 and the offense hasn’t been producing much.
The team brought in five first-years to play alongside six returning players. Head coach Kate Achter said she hoped these players would bring a new level of intensity to the program. But while many of the first-years have started games and have contributed on offense, the team can’t win.
“We have six kids on our team that don’t know how to go and practice at a high level yet,” Achter said. “So you get in a game and you ask them to make game-level shots and they haven’t practiced at that level yet.
