Coach's Comments: Raquel is going to surprise some teams this season. She had a great summer playing against solid varsity competition and that experience should carry over into our season. She is a great athlete who has a knack for scoring inside either on a post up or on a drive. She has gotten better each year at her perimeter game, and she will be looked upon to play major varsity minutes this year.

2009-10 season: one of only 5 girls who played in all 25 games, starting 24 of them. Averaged 6.2 ppg with a season high 16 points in the state semi-finals, and 6.5 rebounds per game which was good for 9th best in the EDC. Her efforts in the state semi-final against Red River was a major reason why the Bruins were able to advance to the title game, and earned her the KVLY Star of the Game honors.

2008-09 season: played a lot of JV ball, but also made important contributions to the varsity team as the season went on. Her minutes in the EDC championship game was a major reason why the Bruins were able to win that game. Led the JV team in rebounding. Scored in 14 varsity games including a career high 8 points against Devils Lake in the EDC title game.

2007-08 season: played mainly on the jv team. Scored in double figures 5 times with a season high 19 points, and also grabbed double figures in rebounds 4 times.

2006-07 season: played in the 8th grade league
