GREEN VALLEY
League: Class 4A Southeast
Head coach: Bud Beam, fourth season
Returning letter winners: Six
Top athletes: Mia Smith (Sr.), Rian Anderson (Jr.), Dana Detweiler (Sr.), Tait Melgar (Jr.), Alexa Petruic (Sr.), Jennifer Sleman (Sr.)
Outlook: Smith, who placed fifth in last year’s Sunrise Region meet and 32nd in the Class 4A state meet leads a group of six returning letter winners for the Gators.
Anderson (15th in the region meet, 53rd at state), Detweiler (23rd in region meet) and Melgar (31st in region meet) also should be among the top returnees in the Southeast.
“This experienced team hopes to rebound from last year’s fourth-place region finish and compete for a team spot at the Nevada state meet,” Beam said.
