Mount Tabor Spartans
Mt. Tabor is low on height,
high on potential
BY TIMOTHY RAMSEY
THE CHRONICLE
Mt. Tabor head coach Willie Harrison
says this is probably the shortest team he
has ever coached on the Junior Varsity
level. To overcome the lack of height his
team possesses they will have to rebound as
a team and use that as a way to push their
fast break.
The Spartans are currently undefeated
on the year with tight victories over
Charlotte Christian and Lake Norman high
schools. They will face stiffer opponents in
the tournament as the number six seed.
Harrison says his team must get better on
both ends heading into the tournament.
"So far this season we have done some
good things like sharing the ball and play
ing together," Harrison said. "We have had
moments of making the correct defensive
assignments but we have to get better all
the way around."
"Here at Mt. Tabor no matter what we
are going out to try and be the best JV team
around. That's our goal every year so we
strive to win and 1 hope we can accomplish
that this year."
Twins Aaron and Andrew Muse will
provide some much needed offensive fire
power according to Harrison. Freshman
Jordan Hunter is a dynamic athlete an.d
looks to contribute immediately. Fellow
freshman Jakob Moore will have to play
big in the post for the Spartans. Duncan
Smits will provide leadership as a returning
player.
"I'm going to lean on all 12 but some of
the guys might stand out more than others,"
Harrison said of his team.
Harrison stated that in the last two years
his team has gotten close to the champi
onship game but has fallen short. He says
this year he would love to actually make it
to the championship game and be able to
take home the title.
"The toughest thing is getting all these
kids time on the floor playing," Harrison
went on to say. "Developing skills is very
important to me, that's my goal and that's
what I'm trying to do."
