Really, they haven't had as good as a team in previous years. Ashley Hatfield? Bad player? Taylor Newsome? Bad Player? Tyler Newsome? Bad Player? What does the past have to do with how good Valley is now? Valley hasn't always had a Elisha Justice, Ashley Hatfield, Taylor Newsome, Tyler Newsome team.

Elisha and Ashley are both solid players...I'll give you that. But to think Valley is going to be as good this year as they were last year is quite comical.

Taylor and Tyler Newsome are average hs players, at best. They both recently quit their AAU team because the coach wasn't giving them enough clock so their dad decided to take them elsewhere. He much rather them play at Knott Co Sports Complex against rec league teams and was against their AAU team playing tough competition because he was more worried about winning than the players developing. Taylor still needs A LOT of improvement to be able to compete with the elite players in the state. Tyler isn't much further ahead.

Again, Shelby Valley will be a powerhouse in EKY, but when it comes to statewide, you SV fans will realize quickly that with or without the transfers, they still don't have the same talent as the elite teams and it will show when and IF they actually meet up with some of those teams.
