@VPerkins196922 @BrzezinskiAlec @BrzezinskiAlec Derek Thomas All State Honorable Mention. @PerkinsVincent

[Travis Neller @CoachNeller]

High school basketball rankings have always been wild — thinking back - early 2000s. But this list might be the wildest

Derek Thomas not even ranked in the Top 50 Division 1 players? Nowhere to be found?

2nd ALL TIME leading scorer @ Waverly. Make it make sense Unbelievable.

@BrzezinskiAlec Oh, so there’s just many better players at his position that you listed. What’s crazy is there’s some that didn’t event make all league over him and the coaches vote on that. But I guess I need to do more research on how all stae teams work.

[Travis Neller @CoachNeller]

@BrzezinskiAlec But you list 10 division 1 teams with 50 guys. So you’re saying he’s not a top 50 player in division 1? Got ya.

[Travis Neller @CoachNeller]

This years Senior class may be one the best Senior classes to come through, Lansing area in quite some time -

KJ, DQ Stweart, Derek Thomas, X Pendergass, Key Summerville
Braden James, Brandon Mercer
Grady Ekland.

All playing college ball next year.

At least 5 = All-State

@BankHoops @BankHoops fun fact, Trey Campbell his teammate is younger brother of former all state player Dee Roberts from Waverly

[Travis Neller @CoachNeller]

who have countiued to improve.

With their hard work and dedication, the program at the JV level has went 65-15 in 4 years.
That’s a winning percentage of 81%.

Thank you Coach Wresinski and Coach Hartman for your help and support.

Go Warriors⚫️🟡🏀! i

Year 16 completed, the JV guys finished 12-6. Every year I set 2 goals
1. Get better prepare - varsity.
2. Win games.
This year I believe we accomplished both.
With this being said, last 4 years my coaching staff & I have had some very talented student athletes, cont. below….

@wilxTV @wilxTV Scott played boys and men’s basketball in high school and college

[Travis Neller @CoachNeller]

Tough loss for varsity last night. With that said, KJ=Mr. Basketball. And it would be well deserved.

Would be first Mr. Basketball from Lansing since Marcus in 2000.

Lansing Made, Lansing Proud 🏀

A basketball player at all three levels. His improvement each year has been tremendous. On pace to be our second leading scorer in school history. We’ve had quite a few ballers come through!
