AGASSI PREP

League: Class 2A Southern

Head coach: Keith Jones, first season

2015 record: 6-3 (5-3 Division III Southern League, fifth)

Base offensive set: Pistol

Base defensive set: 4-3

Top offensive players: Xavier Hewing (Sr.), Steven Burgess (So.), Zeivaun Ned (Sr.)

Top defensive players: Sakenion Clayton (Jr.), Torian Ross (Jr.), Quinlan Coltrain (So.)

Key losses: Kameron Burrell, Oziah Manor, Stephan Laushaul, Nicholas Smith

Outlook: Agassi Prep just missed out on the playoffs last year and will be breaking in a new head coach in Jones this season.

The Stars must find a way to match the production of Burrell and Laushaul, who were two of the team’s top leaders and playmakers.

Look for the Stars to be competitive in league play.

“This is a new and exciting season for us as we look forward to being a very competitive team,” Jones said. “We expect to compete at a high level in all three phases of the game. It will be a learning process for us all, but the goals are always the same; stay focused academically and play hard on the field.”
