A little more info I was able to get for you.

They avery 67 per game, but they don't shoot FT's real well 64%. They like an uptempo game so if you run, you play into their hands. When the played Holmes, who is one of the best uptempo teams in the state, they purposely slowed the game down to take Newport strength away. If they think they can press you, they will. They are very athletic and their press can create turnovers and easy buckets.

McDaniel 6-5 Jr - 14.3 ppg
Darnell 6-5 Sr - 13.2 ppg
Luther 6-2 Jr - 9.5 ppg
Tucker 6-1 Jr - 7.9 ppg
Sizemore 5-8 Jr - 3.2 ppg

That doesn't bode well for the home team Saturday.



Russell's probable starters are
Kyle Skaggs 5'10" 8th grade
Kasey Stapleton 5'10" Jr
Tanner Alexander 6'1" Jr
PJ Goble 5'11" Jr
Scott Ross 5'9" Jr

Others
Nathan Taylor 5'10 Jr
Brandon Boyd 6'1" So
Andrew Hogg 5'10" Sr
Justin Davidson 6'3" Fr
Kirby Whitaker 6'1" Jr
Grant Mckenzie 5'10 So
Austin Hunt 5'9" 8th grade

You can see how young they are. Coach Kidwell is doing a good job with them but is still trying to find the best line up.


I had heard that Newport was athletic but it surprised me that they beat NCC.
