Assistant Coaches:
Team Name: Catasauqua High School

Players to Watch: Derek Troxell (6-0 Sr G/F, 297 pts from 1,000); Cole Schiffer (5-8 Sr G), Ty Reitz (6-4 Sr F); Mason Hess (6-0 Sr C); Donovan Walakovitz (6-2 Sr F); Jake Velez (5-9 Sr G);Adonys Paulino (5-10 Sr F); Luke Colon (5-10 Sr G); Jacob Scheirer (5-10 Jr G); Jared Schneck (6-0 Jr F); Donovan Keys (6-2 Sr C, hurt during football, may not play), Carlos Leonor Martinez, a 6-2 SR Center
The Big question: Can the Roughriders overcome their lack of height and be a force on the boards?
Outlook: We have alot of experienced players returning who got alot of playing time last year. We barely missed the D-11 playoffs by one game.Derek Troxell is 297 points shy of 1,000, how will the condensed schedule affect his pursuit of 1,000 pts. Reitz, Walakovitz and Hess will play very important roles in the rebounding part and interior defense for the team. Schiffer, DiPaolo and Troxell all have lots of experience and should be able to handle all types of pressure.
