Wenting is one of the top players for the Lady Sharks, who have started the season 8-0 as they defend the team\u2019s national championship.<\/span><span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOn the field she\u2019s a leader,\u201d Benoit said. \u201cShe\u2019s those type of players that keep the group together.
