Meridian Basketball Prepares to Kick Off Another Winning Season
BY RYAN MCCAFFERTY
Both Meridian’s boys and girls will see their basketball seasons begin in the coming days, with the boys opening up at home against John R. Lewis High on Monday, the 28th, and the girls participating in a tournament on the road against West Springfield that same evening. Both teams have high hopes for the season, and are excited to get started.
The girls had an exceptionally successful season in 2021-22, a season in which they made it all the way to the State Finals in Richmond before falling to Carroll County. However, they lost a number of starters from that team, including Regional Player of the Year Zoraida Icabalceta, and will now be led by seniors Peyton Jones and Elizabeth Creed. Nevertheless, this team has established itself as a top level program in the state, and head coach Chris Carrico looks to have his girls ready to compete with the best once again.
Meanwhile, the boys look to bounce back from a year of growing pains in which they finished 5-5 in league play and lost in the regional playoffs to Skyline. Starters Wyatt Trundle, Grant Greiner, and Jarrett Jardine all return, with a slew of newcomers joining the squad as well including Dylan Martino, Isaac Rosenberg, and Boston Fitzpatrick. Head coach Jim Smith has high hopes for the season and expects to be competing for the District title.
