Excelling in sports at a young age, junior Sevy Wurtz grew up playing two years up to have decent competition and she is ready to do big things this year for Clifton-Clyde basketball.
Sevy Wurtz, who is coached by her father Kieran Wurtz, has big goals for herself this season and has put in the effort to achieve them.
“I’m aiming to reach 1,000 career points as a junior and make the all-state first team. We’re in a tough league, so coming away with some big wins would be huge for us this year,” Sevy Wurtz said.
Clifton-Clyde’s junior last year averaged 18 points per game, 5.1 rebounds, 2.7 assist and 3.4 steals, which earned her many accolades.
“Sevy is my daughter and also plays for me so that’s a tough spot sometimes for her. She is a good student and hard worker. She is the best athlete I have ever coached but is also very humble and sometimes almost too much,” Head coach Kieran Wurtz said.
Sevy Wurtz dedicated her offseason to getting better at getting stronger at the basket and extending her shooting range.
“Doing individual workouts with my travel coach has really helped me improve my skills. He pushes me with tough drills that challenge me, making sure I’m always getting better and refining my game. It’s been a big part of my development as a player,” Sevy Wurtz said.
