Valley has a lot of talent but its really young, mostly all freshmen and sophomores. They do have a senior guard I know of that's pretty good, but they are going to rely on the younger talent a whole lot. Easily the youngest team in the region but they have experience from last year. They will probably have a few heart breaking losses along the way gaining experience but come the end of the year, they will be one of the top four teams in the region most likely. But to be fair, this whole region is really young this year.

That sounds like a very fair, unbiased assessment of Shelby Valley, and I agree. They are VERY young, only having 4 players above the sophomore level on the team.

Personally, I would not rank them in the Mountain Top 10 right now. I could very well see them having a year like last year, with several tough losses in the regular season, but able to make a run at winning the region in March. They will be very well-coached, and Greg will certainly get the best he can out of them.
