The Warrior basketball team has many things they want to accomplish this season, but the obvious end goal, according to Brantley Deaton (12), is winning a Sectional Title.
“Last year we went from not very good to competitive, and this year we have a lot of work to do. Our goal is to be a championship team,” said Coach Brent Jameson.
Deaton says he has many things he is looking forward to this season. Among them, is a chance to make more memories with his team.
“I am looking forward to having another good season,” said Treyton Owens (11).
But to have a good season, the team must work for it. With an improved schedule in opponents, the Warriors will be facing tougher teams than before. According to Owens, the team must improve on defense, “[we] need to stop the other team from scoring points.”
Jameson said, “We need to [be] more disciplined and execute better, play hard, be competitive.”
