Coach: Chris Reed (second year)
Last year’s record: 9-10, lost in Western D preliminary.
Returning letter-winners: Seniors — Micah Madore (5-9 guard), Robert Rowe (6-2 forward), Keenan Stockdale (6-2 forward), Jonah Williams (6-2 guard/forward),; Junior — Jared Eastman (5-10 guard).
Key loses: Tyler Goyette (guard), Jeff Pepin (forward), Scott Pierce (forward).
Promising newcomers: Juniors — Tyler Vallee (5-9 guard), Alec Brough (6-1 forward); Sophomore — Hunter Wiley (6-0 guard); Freshmen — Kyle Charest (6-0 forward), Jake Kraske (5-10 guard).
Outlook: After a rare miss last season, the Bucks are targeting a return to Augusta in February. They have good size, which Reed is asking his players to match with toughness and confidence. Eastman, a potential 20 ppg scorer, Madore and Stockdale should give them sufficient scoring options. Williams shares point guard duties but is also their top rebounder, while Rowe plays the role of defensive stopper and finisher on the fast break.
