Who to Watch

This session is loaded with talented teams ...

In addition to Mason County's Darius Miller (6'7" Senior) , Trevor Setty (6'7" Senior), and Russ Middleton (6' 31/2" Junior) also look for these Top Players/Teams to entertain as well :

Withrow is loaded with big time players and is one of the top teams in Cincinnati (#3 in Cincinnati Coach's Poll). The Tigers are led 6'9" Senior Center Yancy Gates, a University of Cincinnati Signee, and are a powerhouse offensively.

Scott County, defending State Champions and Ranked #2 in the Coach's Preseason Top 25, lost Bud Mackey in the preseason but still boasts some potent players including Seniors Jordan Lee (6'7" Center) and Cameron Hundley (6'3" Forward) and highly touted Junior Richie Phares (6"7" Center/Forward).
