I've got to credit MC's dedication to building the program from the youth level. I feel they do more for promoting and supporting their teams and preparing them for HS basketball than any other program in the state.

Do you want to know what Mason Co's Varsity offensive sets and defensive strategy is? Watch their 4th grade team! they literally work their program all the way down to the gras root level with direct involvement from the Varsity level coaches.

I have watched afew games this year,and the Royals have some young talent coming up,that's for sure.They have a couple 7th grader's that stand out in my mind..And their 6th grade team has 3 or 4 players that can play.Maybe someone closer to the program can give us more information on who the kids are coming up,and what we can expect to see in a couple years or so.
