Northwood Preview

Fast facts

Opponent: Northwood
Enrollment (9-12): 308
Division/League: D-IV / TAAC
Team Nickname: Rangers

From the Toledo Blade TAAC Preview

Coach: John Bryan, second season
Last season: 3-18, 2-10 TAAC
This season: 2-9, 1-4

Top players: Seniors Ricky Hartley, 6-1, W; Garrett Reighard, 6-1, W; John Willey, 5-9, G; Garrett Mallett, 5-10, G. Junior Tyler Williams, 6-0, W.

Outlook: Bryan has three starters along with seven letter winners back.

That should give the Rangers good overall depth, according to Bryan.

Hartley averaged 8.9 points and 4.5 rebounds per game to earn all-district honorable mention.

A lack of size could be a potential area of weakness.

"We're definitely hoping for improvement in what might be the strongest Division IV conference in the state," Davie said. "I think on any given night anybody can get anybody."

Game notes: Northwood is the last TAAC opponent yet to be faced by the Hawks…MV won both games last year against the Rangers...the Rangers top performers are Evan Perkins (10th in TAAC scoring - 13.6 ppg) and Tyler Williams (13th in scoring - 13.2 ppg)...this is the last game for the Hawks for ten days while they sweat it out over finals...next up, a ho-hum game - it's only the second contest against TAAC leader Gibsonburg.
