Conference outlook:
We feel that the Marawood North is up for grabs with Rib Lake being a tough team who returns lots of starters and notable impact players. Athens, Prentice, and Phillips will also be very competitive teams this season.
Keys to your success this season:
We need to play together as a team on the offensive and defensive end. We need to be willing to share the ball and get all 5 guys on the floor involved so we have threats to score the basketball from multiple guys. We want to get into a rhythm offensively where we know and understand what each other is going to do. We need to be able to defend for long periods of time and make our opponent shoot contested shots. Limiting easy buckets and wide open jumpers is crucial for us.
