Valley has the potential to be asolutely awesome. Look at what two schools are being combined, Virgie and Dorton, the two leading middle school programs around this area. You would think that when they combine the two teams that they would dominate. We haven't seen that from them though. But from what I've heard from the players and family of the players, Saunders is making a great difference. He's extremely tough on the boys, but they respect him. And I really think that if Saunders stays, as we all know Valley's coaches are short lived, that he will make an incredible difference in the years to come. I've already heard wonderful things about them this year, even though their game may have been a little off last night. I'm excited for them!

I'm sure a lot of players don't play because of basketball, or at least i know that has been an issue in the past.

And I hope Saunders stays around as well...but if your from the Valley, you know things change quick. If ya start to lose a few, people stop liking you.
