Whitley County is coached by Randy Love and his two assistants Heather Housley and Brandon Anderson.  Members of the team are Kylee Brown, Megan Gibbs, Jaelyn Bracket, Katlynn Collier, Emily Worley, Darcie Anderson, Emily Gaylor, Amber Brown, Marissa Douglas, Jalicia Brummett, Gracie Jo Wilder, Makayla Frazier, and Kloey Gibson.

 

This team is a well coached, cohesive unit with their share of star power.  However it is a complete team that utilizes a lot of players.  Darcie Anderson is a cool quarterback who directs traffic but can score when needed and is an excellent passer.  Marissa Douglas is a big time scorer who is not afraid to take the big shot.  Gracie Jo Wilder is another player who can get it done under pressure. Although the team finished 6-0 in the tournament they faced some formidable competition.

 

There were several excellent players in this event that will be heard on in the near future and will well represent the class of 2024.  Darcie Anderson and Marissa Douglas have already been mentioned and Kinsey Molden (Southern Pulaski) is another future star.  Molden is a very savvy, polished player and is an excellent scorer from the perimeter and off the dribble.  Talynne Shearer is an excellent scorer with good size and gets to the rim at will.  Many other players impressed in this tournament.

 

A special thanks to Tom Bower and his fine staff at the Kentucky Basketball Commission for the hospitality extended me this last week end.  The scores and all tournament teams were provided by the KBC staff and the scores came from the official score sheets.  Please forgive any misspelling of names or any errors in the player’s numbers as I was hurriedly collecting the info from the stat sheets after the games.  This report is merely an indicator of the event and not intended to be official.
