Final Comments:
What are your team’s strengths?
We’re returning some very experienced players. The guard play will definitely be our biggest strength with guys who can handle the ball well, shoot and score. This group also takes a lot of pride in their defense and getting stops. A team first attitude, toughness and the desire to win are the things they strive for everyday!
What are your team’s concerns?
Rebounding will be one of the biggest hurdles after losing our top two rebounders from a year ago and we aren’t as tall so we’ll be asking a lot from our guards to help us on the boards.
Getting used to playing together and finding chemistry early on and consistency each night with some inexperienced players mixing with the veterans.
What are the team goals or expectations?
Our goals are to always play hard, tough, intense and aggressive each night! To be in the race for a MOAC title and to make it back to Districts. The returning players from last year know how it felt to get that far and come up short.
