nsity I think the ' 85- ' 86 RHS boys ' basket- ball team is an exciting team. We ' re dif- ferent. We ' re smaller, quicker, have better defense, and we have good shooters. I think we ' re a fun team to watch, because we have pressure de- fense and we look for a fast-break when the opportunity arises. We believe in team concept. Everyone plays in every game and contributes their skill and tal- ent. I feel that if you come watch us, you ' ll enjoy the game and go away agreeing with me. Dale Johnson — Head Coach. I feel that we have a good team. This is my second year on the team and it ' s the best one yet. We have good players, and the coach is a nice guy. Anthony Barno — Post. We ' re young and inexperienced, and we don ' t have much height. But we ' re smart, quick, and intense on de- fense. We practice hard and it pays off. Joey Goree — Guard -Forward. We ' re an inexperienced team, we have only two returning players from last year. Through the past couple of months we ' ve come together to form a well-rounded ball club, and with great coaching we should become a good competitor and go CBL. Troy Adams — Guard.
