Connor LaGanke
This is Connor’s senior year and second year on the varsity as he saw some
action as a back-up point guard last year. He is competing for minutes at
the lead guard position with two other teammates. Connor brings more of a
finesse threat to the position as he’s a good passer of the basketball,
has range out to the three point line and understands our system very
well. Look for Connor to bring a sense of calmness on the court as he
leads the Tigers at the point guard spot. |

Tyler Green
This is Tyler’s second year on the varsity. Tyler was able to get
experience last year by splitting time between the junior varsity and
varsity teams. Tyler’s athleticism has improved quite a bit over the last
year and he always brings a spark to the team when on the floor. Look for
Tyler to cause problems for other teams by providing defensive pressure,
rebounding and tracking down loose balls and getting the Tigers out in
transition

Chris Bowling
Chris, a senior and a captain, is now in his third year on varsity. Chris,
as a junior last year, was selected to the first team in Section 2 by the
coaches and holds a few college offers to play basketball, which he
currently hasn’t decided on yet. Chris is a great teammate both on and off
the court and can be relied on by his teammates and coaches. Offensively,
he has the ability to do a little of everything. Stretch the defense with
his shot and score with his back to the basket. The Tigers will most
definitely rely on Chris heavily all season long both on the court and as
leader in our program and on campus. |

Jacob Nicolds
This is Jacob’s third year on varsity as he started for the Tigers last
year as a junior and was brought up to the varsity team late in the season
as a sophomore. Jacob simply is a problem for the opposition. He’s
developed skills to score away from the basket, take defenders off the
dribble and dominate smaller defenders in the paint. Jacob is the best
defender and rebounder in the program too. He’s developing into a
tremendous leader on the court and within our program and his positive
energy around campus is infectious. Jacob is currently hearing from a few
college programs and will be relied on to carry the Tigers all year long.

Nick LaMancusa
Nick, a junior, is
entering his first year on varsity. Nick is competing for time at the lead
guard position. Nick’s game is not flashy, but simply, productive. Nick
has a heady game and uses deception to beat his opponents. Nick may not be
the loudest players on the court, but none are tougher. Look for Nick to
bring steadiness to the Tigers and a complete team game when running the
point guard position.

Caden Towt
This is Caden’s second year on varsity as he was on varsity last year as a
sophomore. Caden is as tough as they get and simply gets the job done each
and every night. Caden can do a little of everything. He will be called
upon to handle the ball at times, he’s a good passer and shooter of the
basketball and will guard one of the other team’s best players each night.
Caden, like many of our juniors, is very intelligent, tough and cares most
about winning and his teammates.

Stevie Newendyke
This is Stevie’s first year on varsity. Stevie is one of the best shooters
in our program and really has the ability to stretch the other team’s
defense. Besides shooting, Stevie is a very good passer of the basketball
and his knowledge of how to play is very good. Stevie may not be the most
athletic guy on the court, but more than makes up for that with his
deception and anticipation. Look for Stevie to be a bit of a play-maker
for the Tigers this year. |

CJ Waters
CJ is new to the Tigers this year and he’s been a pleasant surprise to say
the least. CJ might be the best athlete on our varsity team and plays with
an extremely high motor. CJ is what coaches like to call a ball hawk. He’s
always around the ball. CJ is a great rebounder, shot blocker and it’s
hard for coaches to take him off the court as he does so many little
things that helps the team be successful. Look for CJ to stuff the stat
sheet in multiple areas of the game this year. |

steadiness when on the court. |

Kaleb Hoyum
Kaleb, a junior, will be splitting time between the junior varsity and
varsity programs. Kaleb has probably improved just as much if not more
than any other player in our program over the last year. He’s worked hard
on his conditioning and even more on his shot and it shows. The coaches
are happy with his development both on and off the court.

Kyle, a junior, will be splitting time between the junior varsity and
varsity programs this season. Kyle has a nice shot and has developed a
pull up jump shot too. He can handle the ball and is deceptively quick.
Kyle is a nicely skilled player and will continue to improve as his
confidence and strength improve

strong wing that has the ability to really shoot the ball from deep. Dylan
has really seen strides in his physical tools as the weight room work has
paid dividends. Dylan has also shown the ability to score around the
basket and by rebounding the ball. Look for Dylan to give the Tigers a
spark when on the floor. |

Jack Plummer
Jack, a sophomore, will be splitting time both on the
varsity and junior varsity. Jack is a natural leader and is as tough as
they come. Jack, when on the court, has the ability to do a little of
everything. Jack is one of those players that is difficult to take off the
court as he plays with such a high motor |

the varsity and junior varsity programs. Tyler will be running the point
guard when on the court and he too brings a level of toughness and
confidence when on the court. Tyler sees the game well as a point guard
who can shoot it and pass it well. Tyler also is a natural vocal leader
for the Tigers. |

varsity and in our program as he is new to us from Utah. Trajon will be
competing at the lead guard position for the Tigers and is one of our
better athletes on the varsity team. Trajon is a very tough kid and one of
the Tiger’s better defenders. The ball just seems to find Trajon when on
the court. Trajon likes to push the ball up the court and has improved on
his ability to shoot the basketball. |
