Boys’ Basketball
Coach: Scott Graffam (11th year)
Last year’s record: 7-12, lost in Eastern A prelim
Returning letter winners: Seniors -Cody Hadley (5-9 guard), Matt Verrier (6-1 forward), Asher White (6-1 forward), Nate Dubois (5-9 guard), Andrew Keniston (5-11 guard), Jake Hall (6-2 forward), Ethan Davidson (6-2 forward), Kyle Farrar (6-2 forward); Juniors – Matt McVety (6-3 center).
Key losses: Josh Childs (guard), Jordan Farrar (center), Jordan Collins (forward).
Promising newcomers: Junior – Dan Taylor (5-10 guard); Sophomore – Josh McDonald (6-2 center).
Outlook: With a senior-laden roster, the Vikings are looking to go deeper in the tournament this year. They don’t have a lot of size again, so cranking up the tempo is a must. That makes rebounding and defense a huge priority to start the transition. They should be able to spread the offensive production around, with Dubois, Hadley, Verrier and Hall the leading scorers.
Coach’s comment: “We’re going to try to press and run and make the game up-and-down a little bit.” – Coach Scott Graffam
