WHY do you play the game?
The Brook Hill basketball program plays to win, but there is a lot more to it than that.
Players play to honor God with their talents. Coaches teach discipline, hard work, teamwork, how to succeed and how to deal with failure. All of which players will need to become Christ-like men. The Guard basketball program has seen a lot of success appearing in the Final Four in 2009, 2010, and 2014. Coach Agnew will look to take the Guard back to the top this year.
After a successful 2020-2021 campaign that saw the Guard advance to the Area Round of the playoffs, this year’s squad will look a little different. With the graduation of seven seniors, the new-look Guard will depend on the likes of senior forward Grayson Murry, senior guard Brady Callens, and junior guard Noah Langemeier to lead this season. Coach Agnew will look to fit in a number of new players, including senior forward Hermann Conde, senior Thomas De Carli, and junior Jakub Dluzewski, along with standouts from last year’s JV squad, junior Colton Carson, junior Von Dawson, senior Sam Hall, and sophomore Dylan Malone.
“I am excited about this group. With new faces and young faces, we may have a learning curve but we have talent to do a lot of good things this season.” – Coach Agnew
The Guard will open their season with a scrimmage at home against Tyler HEAT on November 6.
