For today's spotlight, we take a look at the Whiteland Warriors.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Quick Hitters</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Finished 10-15 last season</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Lost to Columbus North in Sectionals </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Nate Cangany returns for 5th season as head coach. 42-51 record overall.</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Top Player: [player_tooltip player_id='1384407' first='Wiatt' last='McLaughlin']</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>McLaughlin is probably one of the best under-the-radar shooting guards we have in the state. At 6'1, he is a guard that loves to attack the basket while also being real capable of scoring at other levels as well. He is a very athletic guard which makes that a huge advantage of his when attacking the lane As a junior, he averaged 16.7 points per game which made him the leading scorer for the Warriors. This season, expect those numbers to go up even more while still be the leading guy for Whiteland. A very intriguing small college prospect. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other Important Roster Members:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1578410' first='Jaskirat' last='Banwait']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1578388' first='Ethan' last='Edwards']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1578394' first='Gavin' last='Stubbe']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1560961' first='Grady' last='Gardner']</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>vs Jennings County (11/22)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>at Center Grove (12/15)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Lawrenceburg Tournament (12/29)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Johnson County Tournament (1/9)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>vs Beech Grove (2/23)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list -->
