Willard Middle School Basketball Tryouts

     It’s that time again! Are you ready for basketball? Friday was our first practice of the season and I’m ready. In the past two weeks we have had open gym for anyone who wanted some extra practice. This was also for the coaches too. They used these open gyms to get to know their players and what they can do. During the open gyms the coaches split all the players into different teams and we would play five on five. They had the opportunity to show their ability on how well they know the game of basketball.
     There are many players trying out for the team. That consist of Alex Strayer, Alex Johnson, Will Gates, Caleb Ousley, Johnathan Cutura, Carlos Iracheta, Carson Hamons, Carson Cinniger, Gavin Huff, Austin Parsons, Chase Daniel, Sixtos Gonzalez, Braydon Thompson, Finn Morris, Kyle Smith, Ean Stumbo, Trenton Mock, Gilberto Rojas, Dylan Thompson, and Carson Weirs. As you can see we have a really big team. Our coach told us that he can only hold 13 to 14 players so there will be some cuts. Our first scrimmage is on Monday the 19th. I Hope we have a good season.
