Are you ready for the snow to start falling and cold weather? Well, it's just around the corner, and with it comes boy's basketball. The varsity team just kicked off their season with their first practice on Monday, November 11. Senior Tate Taufer said, “I can’t wait till we start. I am excited to be playing with the guys.” This season, the seniors can’t wait to play at home. The Hornets lost Jared McCunn, one of the most versatile players to play for the Hornets, and it will be hard to replace him. The Hornets open their season at the IVC Thanksgiving Tournament in a couple weekends. But for Tate Taufer, he can’t wait until the Christmas tournament which is in Macomb. “We always play good there, and it’s just an amazing tournament to be in,” said Tate Taufer. As a team, the only thing on their mind is winning a regional. They have contested the past two years but fell short every year. “We need to compete for the regional, and hopefully we can win one this year,” said Coach Aaron Dohner. The boys open their basketball season at home on Friday, December 6 against the Olympia Spartans. So come out, and support the team on a new, amazing season.
