It’s been a good start for the Lady Blazers, but after a tough schedule to start the season, first year Head Coach DeandraSchirmer sees this roadtrip as an opportunity to make up some ground.

But he still found a way to achieve those expectations, and that is why the Gulf South Conference Coach of the Year award he received is well warranted.
