Who will step in the C spot for valley or wll they go with a smaller lineup?
Also are they any incoming freshman who will could make an impact?

I know Dorton had a big boy Cody Belter? is his name if Im not mistaken, but if Im not mistaken he is just a 7th grader. Can he come up and contirbute? Is it allowed? Does Virgie have any one coming in? Just a few questions a few of us were discusing?

Unless something changes dramatically, they will start a smaller lineup with Elisha, Cody, Tyler, Taylor, and Ashley. Taylor isn't very tall, but rebounds like a 6-6 guy. He averaged 13 per game in the state and is by far their best rebounder. I think Ashley will really have to step up his rebounding next year. If Varney can stay out of foul trouble, he will be a good rebounder because of his athletic ability.

This lineup is smaller, but not really small with Elisha 5'10"-5'11", Varney 6'1"-6'2", Tyler 6'3"-6'4", Taylor 6'2"-6'3", and Ashley 6'5"-6'6". The bigger problem will be who will step up off the bench. Will it be Trey Roberts, Rusty Roberts, Logan Lucas, Jacob Robinson, or Colton Damron at guard or Dillon Tackett, Christian Bartley, or Jonathan Berger at forward/center? Cody Belter will be in the 8th grade and could help size wise, but his speed and strength aren't good enough to contribute at this level yet (maybe his offseason progress will change that). Dalton Richardson from Virgie is athletic enough to contribute a little, but adjusting to the physical part of the game may be a problem for him too.
