The Background

This young team returns 3 Starters (Owens, Vickers, Tucker).  Team should be much improved over last year’s 8-17 team which had 3 Freshman in the top 6.  Owens is a big guard who can shoot the 3 and get to the goal.  Vickers is a 2 year starter who can score inside and out.  Tucker is an outstanding defender who has 3 point range and can attack the basket.  Snyder has good quickness and plays with a non stop motor.  Sweeney is a smart player with great length and basketball smarts.
