New Pal girls - Departing Coach Sarah Gizzi
NEW PALESTINE, Ind. -- (Updated 3/20) A fixture at New Pal, Coach Gizzi has resigned after six seasons, nearly 100 wins, and two Sectional titles. She was also named an Indiana All-Star as a player for the Dragons. Last season New Pal finished at 13-12 and Sectional runners-up to rival Mt. Vernon. Varsity Clubber reports just one senior graduates, but it’s a very big loss. Coach Gizzi’s daughter matriculates to play college ball and takes with her nearly 25ppg. Six underclass are expected back with letter jackets on, but all will have to take on expanded roles. Another area of concern is a lack of skilled height. 5-8 will be about it for head-toppers next season in red. A decent JV should help. Not much help expected from 8th grade, but 7th grade group described as very, very good. HS Science, HS Math, HS Sped, Eled.
