Coach: Todd Flaherty (first year)

Last year’s record: 8-11, lost in Western Class C preliminary

Returning players: Seniors — Zak Johnson (5-9 point guard), Nick Hatfield (6-0 forward); Juniors — Madison Jalbert (5-10 forward), Eric Ulin (6-2 center), Matt Dyer (6-2 guard), Mike Bryan (5-10 guard).

Key losses: Joe Bryant (5-8 guard), Tom Applegate (6-7 center), David Dean (5-11 guard), Ian McCracken (6-0 forward), Drew Gosselin (6-1 forward).

Newcomers: Juniors — Brady Whetzel (5-10 forward), Cam Raymond (5-10 guard); Sophomore — Becket Wagner (6-4 forward)

Outlook: The Saints are a young team learning a new coach’s system. Quickness will be the team’s strength, and Flaherty liked to use a running, pressing style during his tenure at Morse. Johnson, a three-year varsity contributor, will provide a steadying presence at both ends of the floor.

Coach’s comment: “Our intention is to play hard and improve every day. If our actions match our intentions, we will be a competitive team in the MVC.” — Coach Todd Flaherty
