Coach White announced last Thursday that Kell Boys Basketball will be attending two camps this summer. The first will be at Georgia Tech starting June 8th and ending the 10th. The other camp will be at Florida State University in Tallahassee, Florida running from the 22nd of June until June 24th. If you have any information about any of the camps, please contact Coach White at dwayne.white@cobbk12.org.
There will be a brief meeting after school Thursday to discuss summer activities and AAU basketball in Coach McClure's room. Be there by 3:30 pm.
Coach White looks to have a bright future as Kell's JV and Freshmen teams have had good success this year. Coach Dana Melvin has led the JV team to a 8-7 record including victories against Wheeler and arch-rival Lassiter. Ben Caulk and Bryant Stewart have led the JV Longhorns all season and look to finish strong with three games left on the schedule.
The Freshmen team started out slowly with a 1-6 record before winning five straight games to pull their record to .500, before losing the last two games including a thriller loss to Wheeler in double overtime. The 9th boys Longhorns are led by the Trey Pettiford, Brandon Searcy, Jay Pettiford, and point gaurd Marcus Webb. The Freshmen team looks to take the last three games and end the season 9-8.
With only three games left until the regional tournament, Kell boys Varisty is looking to start a string of upsets and sneak into the State Playoffs. Kell's play of late shows signs of promise as they competed well against Sprayberry and Walton, but fell off late in the game. Kell looks to get revenge of a loss earlier this season Friday night when they host Pope at 7:30 p.m. Saturday will be Senior night as Kell hosts Chatahoochie at 5:00 p.m.
