Staff Interview: Mr. Swafford

Staff Reporter Zach Cottrell
Zach Cottrell: Tell us about next year’s basketball team.
Mr. Swafford: We lost 7 great seniors, so we are going to depend on Chase McCloud, Max Newman, and Jaylen Sprague for their experience.  Plus we have some very capable players that will move up from the JV team.  This summer will be important for our team to work together and get used to having different roles and expectations.
Zach Cottrell: What are your expectations for next year?
Mr. Swafford: We are wanting to make big strides from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, with a sectional championship as our ultimate goal.
Zach Cottrell: What’s your plan for next year after losing 7 seniors?
Mr. Swafford: It’s definitely going to be tough to replace our seniors; they were a special group.  Hopefully, our younger players follow their lead and continue to buy in for the program and work hard to reach our team goals.
   
Zach Cottrell: What do you think the most important thing is to build off of last year’s success?
Mr. Swafford: We have to be consistent in every way possible, and we have to work very hard in the off season, understanding that nothing will be given and any success will have to earned!
