Rotolo Signs with Barton

KBCA all state guard Hannah Rotolo signed Thursday to play basketball at Barton Community College in Great Bend. Rotolo says she was nervous when coach Jill Barclay resigned as head coach several weeks ago but is relieved to sign. Barton named Keith Ferguson their head women’s coach on Monday. He comes to the Great Bend school from Brown Mackie in Salina. Barton went 25-7 and won the Jayhawk West this year. Rotolo led Liberal to a 21-2 season under third year head coach Shane Stout. Liberal was 8-0 in the WAC and advanced to state for the first time in 11 years. Rotolo led LHS as four assists and five steals per game. She scored 12 a game and poured in 23 against Newton. An interview with Rotolo, Ferguson, and Stout can be heard Friday during the Sportsguys on Talkradio 1270 and kscb.net.
