MORRISTOWN, NJ – The Morristown High School girls basketball team has high expectations this winter based on experience. Morristown is coming off a 16-10 campaign where it made the North 1, Group 4 tournament semifinals. The Colonials return their starting five in 2023-24, led by senior Northeastern commit Maya Summerville, who was a consistent double-double threat last season. Complimenting Summerville’s inside and outside game are Anna Rivetti and Cameron McGinley in the backcourt and senior Ally Smith at center and junior Kacie Bush as a strong outside threat from the wing. “The outlook for our team is very promising,” said Morristown assistant head coach Ken Newman. “Of course, we play in a tough conference, but the year’s maturity should bode well for us. We have already seen the benefits of having everyone return as we are ahead of where we were last year. We have a very competitive scrimmage scheduled before kicking off our season on the road in December.” Last year’s freshman standout, Caroline Condon, will lead the bench and look to contribute at an even higher level this season. Along with Condon, seniors Laura Wild and Rachel Van Sciver and junior Ella Watson will be contributors off the bench.
