Scout Clark’s Open Gym Journey: Westover High School

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>On Monday afternoon we got the opportunity to drop in to see workouts at Westover High School which is always one of our first stops in the Fayetteville area. Led by legendary Coach George Stackhouse, the Wolverines will have several new faces this year to go along with a few returning upperclassmen that should give them a nice balance. Workouts began with a high amount of work on the defensive side of the ball followed by some half court and full court five on five competition. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_63212fa352daa","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1076361"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"A new addition to the Wolverine squad, we fully expect him to have a big-time season which will only boost his recruitment sooner than later.
