Boys Basketball Preview

Coach: Al Smith.

Last year: 11-13, lost in the Region II, Division 4 quarterfinals.

Key returners: Mason Smith, Chris Skinner, Chad Potter.

Key losses: Trae Tinsman, Brock Lockhart, Garrett Cunningham, James Thorne.

Key newcomers: David Alaniz, Sergio Pena, Ryland Williams.

Outlook: The Colonels lost a lot of their offense from last season, but have some new faces who could help fill the gaps. If the new players and veterans can come together, James Wood can be a dangerous team in the district.

"We're a work in progress right now," Smith said. "I think we have a chance to be a pretty good team by the end of the season."
