Southeast 1B preview

Around the league

Conversation begins and ends with state power Colton until it is knocked off. The Wildcats graduated four starters off a 25-1 team, but they return five lettermen led by lone returning starter Jenna Moser, a senior guard. “Even though we graduated five, we return quite a bit of experience,” Colton coach Clark Vining said. … Garfield-Palouse brings back all of its starters and four other lettermen. Six players started off and on last year. They are seniors Taylor Redman and Chandler Pfaff, Sammi Johnson, Cassie Martin and Kenzie McClanahan and junior Lexi Rodriguez. … Pomeroy returns five starters led by seniors Torrie Koller and Mackenzie Monahan. … Rosalia brings back three starters: Seniors Mackenzie Reddish and Shannon Carrothers and junior Rayna Charles. Reddish averaged 17 ppg last year. She needs 75 points to reach 1,000.
