November 17, 2016 - 2:36 am
PALO VERDE
Head coach: Paul Sanchez, fifth season
2015-16 record: 10-16 (1-7 Southwest, fifth)
Returning lettermen (starters): Four (two)
Top players: G Cole Hendershot (Sr.), G James Camp (Sr.), F Logan McGhee (Sr.), G Josh Darling (Sr.), C Brian Sullivan (Jr.), C Daniel Bellinger (Jr.), G Tieman Allen (Jr.)
Outlook: The Panthers have a lot of scoring to make up for with the loss of Taylor Miller (27 points per game) and Ryan Vogelei (9.2 ppg) to graduation.
Hendershot (8.7 ppg, 7.0 rebounds per game), Camp (5.0 ppg, 2.1 rpg), McGhee (4.3 ppg, 4.0 rpg) and Darling (3.0 ppg) should be among the team’s contributors.
“We have a young group of juniors to complement our returning players,” Sanchez said. “We look to improve each day and compete in the Northwest League.”
