Head coach: Scott McMinds
2018-2019 record: 14-8 (10-4 SSC)
Key players: Colby White, sr., PG; Elijah LaBow, sr., G; Seth Tower, sr., F; Cooper Watkinson, sr., G.
Outlook: The Cougars graduated four starters off last year’s district tournament team, but do return point guard White, who averaged 14.6 points and 4.6 assists per game. He’ll marshall a much younger team this year, but LaBow, Tower and Watkinson all saw some minutes off the bench.
