Team Strengths:

Hard team to guard and depth

Question Marks:

Who will replace Poen's scoring?

Overview:

Even though Sac City said goodbye to the nearly twenty points per game Nate Poen
scored last year, this could be a team that is even harder to guard this time
around. Four starters are back and each averaged between 6.4 to 10.5
points per game. Teams will not be focusing on just stopping one player.
They will need to stop the whole team as everyone in the starting lineup will
likely have what it takes to score. Wade McDonough leads the way and he is
one of the most talented athletes in the Class of 2008. He is a standout
in a number of sports and averaged ten points and five assists last year as a
sophomore. Now that he is a year older, watch out because he will likely
step into the main scorer role. This team may have only finished one game
above .500 last year but the pieces are there for some huge improvement.
