Reagan Raiders
Reagan will use size in the
front court as recipe for success
BY TIMOTHY RAMSEY
THE CHRONICLE
The Reagan Raiders are a funda
mentally sound team that wants to
pound the ball inside to their big
men like Henry Slater, Trevor
Willard and Patrick Travatello.
They also can stretch the defense a
bit with good shooters like point
guard Landon Rice and Kameron
Head coach James Stackhouse
says in his teams season opening
game against East Forsyth they
were inconsistent and didn't play
well when the game got close. They
wound up losing in overtime to the
Eagles by four points. They
bounced back 24 hours later to
soundly beat Winston-Salem Prep
in a runaway.
"I was concerned going into the
game against Winston-Salem Prep
because I didn't know how they
would respond," said Stackhouse.
"1 told them what they needed to
work on and that they needed to be
more consistent and if they got a
lead they needed to continue to
build on it by doing the things we
work on in practice. I was pleased
with the way they played because
they didn't let up.
Stackhouse preaches tough
defense, playing inside out, boxing
out and allowing only one shot per
possession from the opponent. He
says if his team does all of those
things well they will have a chance
to compete in every game.
The Raiders have a veteran team
with only five freshman on the
team. Stackhouse says he antici
pates his team will nave a good
showing at this years tournament.
He says with the things they work
on in practice will manifest them
selves in the tournament.
Team Captain and only returning
JV player from last year, Landon
Rice, will run the show at the point
for Reagan. When asked about
Rice, Stackhouse said, "he is smart,
he is heady and he controls the
tempo well. He makes smart deci
sions and shoots when he needs to
shoot and drives when he needs to
drive. He is just a cool customer
under pressure."
Stackhouse says a good season
for his team would be for all his
players growing and developing
ana the team doing it as a whole to
reach their full potential. He says
he would love to win the Lasn
Chronicle tournament along with
the conference crown.
"As long as we come out and
give 100 percent effort every game
and reach what 1 believe to be our
teams full potential, which I think
could be a conference champi
onship and potentially a Lash
Championship I think that would
constitute as a successful season for
us.
