Wildcats At A Glance
One of the South’s proudest programs, driven by a defense-first group of guards under coach Larry Thompson, rolled to the school’s 10th state championship last March, and returns a strong nucleus led by 6-5 SR Colben Landrew (18.0 ppg, 6.5 rpg, 3.8 apg) and 5-9 JR Kevin Savage, each of whom scored 19 points in the 61-56 title-clincher over Newton. … A key transfer addition is Ole Miss commit 6-6 SR Jaron Saulsberry (Norcross GA). The Wildcats are 10-8 in five previous City of Palms appearances, including a 2014 championship behind tournament MVP and current Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown.
