Looking at the top names for the girls and boys basketball players from the 2022-2023 season, and thought it would be a good idea to go ahead and get this started and let any of you that want to weigh in on it, let your thoughts be known…
I will be contacting some of our local coaches and will be getting their input too…

Who have we left out, and what names are in the running for Coach of the Year, and Player of the Year???
For Coach we have seen on the boys side, Coach Wil Perry-Southern Guilford HS, Coach Derrick Partee-Smith HS, and Coach Darren Corbett-Grimsley HS….from the Girls, we have seen Coach Mike Bolton-Smith HS, Coach Haley Hackett-Northwest Guilford HS, and Coach Kim Furlough-Northern Guilford HS….And you may have other options that you want in here, and what about Coach Freddy Johnson, from over at the Greensboro Day School for the boys….
And on Player of the Year, so far we have seen Candice Williams from Page HS, as the Metro 4-A POY for the girls, and Zacch Wiggins, from Grimsley HS, for the boys in the Metro….Any other candidates we should be peering into??? Like Morgan Smith or Zoe Davis from Smith HS, on the girls ledger, or Jasmine Harris, Jadyn Newsome, or Maslyn Mosbacher on the girls side of the court???
For the boys you can’t go wrong with Zacch Wiggins, but what about Gage Lattimore from over at Smith HS, or do you like Jamias Ferere from Southern Guilford, or this might be a very good way to go, what about Jaydon Young, over at the Greensboro Day School for the boys/men’s Player of the Year….He led the Bengals to another State Championship this season…
This might be one of our key closing posts/pieces for the season, so look this one over, and then come on over, and let us know what you think……
