Pahranagat Valley Boys Basketball 2012-2013 Capsule
Head coach: Brian Higbee, seventh season
2011-12 record: 20-9 (8-0 1A Southern)
Returning lettermen (starters): 10 (two)
Top players: G Tyler Higbee (Sr.), G Austin Poulsen (Sr.), F/G Tyson Sparrow (Sr.), F Mason Stirling (Sr.), G Wade Leavitt (So.), F Jake Carter (Jr.)
Outlook: Here we go again.
The Panthers start the season a little behind schedule after much of the roster was a part of the state championship football team, and some nagging injuries will cause a few early problems.
Tyler Higbee averaged 17.6 points and 5.0 assists per game, and Poulsen had 12 points and six rebounds per game last season, giving Pahranagat Valley a solid backcourt.
"We have a solid group of seniors who bring tremendous battle-tested leadership and experience," coach Higbee said. "Our goal, as always, is to be competitive in league play and to once again be in a position to make the playoffs."
