NEWPORT COAST, Calif.—Given the already-impressive nature of their collective resume, it stands to reason that the core members of Sage Hill High School’s girls’ basketball team would harbor lofty aspirations.
As freshmen in 2021, Annabelle Spotts, Zoie Lamkin, Emily Eadie, and Kat Righeimer helped the Lightning to the CIF Southern Section Division 3-AA championship. A year later, they won the CIF Division 2 state title, and then last season advanced to state in the Open Division, comprised of California’s elite teams.
