Scouting report Unanimous all-DVC selection Reynolds returns to anchor an otherwise young Panthers lineup. "We put it on her shoulders and said, 'It's your team, take us where you want to go,'" Chamberlain said. "She's the kind of kid that relishes that assignment." Reynolds averaged 12.4 points a game as a junior and went for 29 in a regional loss to West Chicago. "We talked to her about being less of a shooter and more of a scorer," Chamberlain said. "She's very strong and very long." Defensive stopper Jones will be asked to hit the boards hard to make up for graduated post players. Ballhandling could be Glenbard North's biggest improvement with the steady Harn, brought up toward the end of her freshman season.
