Freedom Cascades at Midseason

The Freedom Cascades are the last team to reach midseason this year, and they've pretty much limped their way to this point. Without making any changes to their roster, the Cascades are struggling at 13-22 overall for the season, including a 2-2 record against their fellow Eastern Hills Division teams. The Cascades are 6-10 at home, while they have gone 7-12 on the road, neither a mark to brag about. The Cascades offense clocks in at 1478 points per game, another point of concern, and without fatigue, there's little explanation to what has gone wrong. Jasmine remains a strong captain, hitting over 450 points per game, and she's also their only player who excels on the road. Roxy has stepped up well with about 370 points per game, but Stinky at 340 and Nikolai and 310 have been weaker spots for the Cascades. They also have no explosive talent, although the strong and steady efforts from Jasmine are probably more appreciated. The Cascades should not expect to make the playoffs, as playing their remaining 35 games over the next 12 and a half weeks will likely fatigue them. One positive: their play in pool will likely keep this squad intact next season.
