Boys basketball preview: Valley View
This is another in a series of capsules previewing area high school basketball for the 2009-10 season:
VALLEY VIEW
Coach: Brian Lemke, third season
2008-09 record: 8-13 (4-8 Southwestern Buckeye League Southwestern Division)
Returning starters
Ricky Denny, Sr., F, 6-2
Kyle Pohl, Jr., F, 6-2
Notable
The Spartans are strong inside with returning starters Denny and Pohl. Denny led the team in both scoring (17.5) and rebounding (13.1) last season and Pohl chipped in 13 and eight. Guard play could be a concern early. Brandon Fox (5-11 junior) and Ben Fannin (6-0 junior) have experience and bring stability to the position, but Valley View isn’t very deep after that especially after guards Adam Emrick and Jordan Jacobs transferred to Carlisle. The Spartans, though, who finished tied for third in the division last season, are being mentioned as league contenders this season … and perhaps beyond. The roster has just two seniors to go with six juniors, two sophomores and a freshman.
