Nixa girls basketball enjoyed another successful campaign last season in head coach Jenny Talbert's second season at the helm.

The Eagles compiled a 25-4 record, falling to Kickapoo in the district title match.

"Last season we had a tremendous year," Talbert said. "We unfortunately lost to Kickapoo in the district championship game, but our players gained such great experience by putting ourselves in championship situations, and I really think that will help us moving forward this season."

A pair of talented seniors return to lead Nixa this season in Taylor Wood and Gwen Kubik.

Wood, a 5-foot-11 senior all-conference and all-district honoree, averaged 11.5 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 steals per contest last season.
