The Hawks continued their unbeaten start to the season with a 66-28 win over the Macqaurie Hornets on Saturday and Althofer was happy with the result.
"The weekend's game was a lot of fun, we tried some different combinations on court, mixed up our shooting and mixed up of defence as well," she said.
"So we just had rotated some players around and tried some different things out to see what works and what doesn't work."

Althofer admitted at the start of the season, the goal for the side was to have fun and she feels it is a reason why the team is playing so well.
"It's been lots of fun so far, it never feels like the score is what it is, it always feels a lot closer and sometimes we are a bit tough on ourselves but most of the time we are just having a lot of fun," she said,
"The shooting end is working beautifully, can't complain about them they scoring the goals and doing a really good job of it."
