For today's spotlight, we take a look at the Greenfield-Central Cougars.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Quick Hitters</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Finished 21-2 last season. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Lost to Anderson in Sectionals</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Three-straight winning seasons. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Luke Meredith returns for 5th years as head coach. 62-23 record overall. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Top Player: [player_tooltip player_id='1296984' first='Braylon' last='Mullins']</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This was a very easy choice as far as who to select as the top player for the Cougars. Not only Mullins the best player Greenfield-Central, he is one of the best players in the state period. The 6'5″ shooter is coming off of an excellent summer that saw him gain some national attention and saw his recruitment take off in a hurry. He is one of the best creators on and off the ball in the state and a dude that score at all three levels at an extremely high level. He is going to have a monster next season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Potential Breakout Player: [player_tooltip player_id='1539554' first='Aidan' last='Robertson']</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There are some questions of who could be the player to step up and provide that much needed support around [player_tooltip player_id='1296984' first='Braylon' last='Mullins']. I think [player_tooltip player_id='1539554' first='Aidan' last='Robertson'] could be that guy, especially around the post. Robertson is a 6-foot-5 center that has a massive frame. Little bit of versatility to his game as he scores well through contact but can also sneakily stretch the floor from time to time. If his motor is on, he could really help out the Cougars this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Potential Breakout Player:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1560991' first='Cole' last='Mullins'] - Mullins is a 5'8″ shooting guard that has a smooth shooting stroke from beyond the arc. He knows how to play and moves well to get open off of the ball when working around screening action and cutting. Should be a great perimeter threat for the Cougars. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1561010' first='Clay' last='Mullins'] - Mullins is another guard that can score. More a lead guard than the other two Mullins, he can also shoot the ball very well from deep. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1547496' first='Braden' last='Robertson'] - Robertson is a power forward that will play a much increased role for the Cougars in the front court as one of the senior leaders. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Notable Games (Confirmed)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>at Northeastern (12/2)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>at New Palestine (12/8)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>vs Southport (Southport Tipoff) (12/9)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>vs Lawrenceburg (Hoosier Gym) (12/16)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Morristown Tournament (12/28)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>at Delta (2/1)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
