Lancaster High School basketball coach Joanne Webb-Fary returns an experienced team to the court this week when the varsity Lady Devils open their season.

Lancaster brings back eight of its 10 players, including senior all-district forward/center Khalia Harding and three other senior veterans in guard/forwards Harmony Taylor and Shaniya Thompson and guard Raeghan Franklin.
