Fernley - </em></strong>Fernley has a great shot at competing for the 3A State Title this season in my opinion. They have the best backcourt in the league in [player_tooltip player_id='2356155' first='Sheldon' last='Jacobson'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1768793' first='Bryce' last='Stephens']. Then they also return quality players like Body Parsons and Nolan Berreman who both saw ample playing time in the playoffs last year. If they can get rolling from the get go, they may not lose many games last season. Look for them to be a fun team to watch as well, since they will likely have a high powered offense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><strong>2. Spring Creek - </strong></em>Spring Creek graduated a few seniors, including 6'6 forward Darren Bylund who performed well in the playoffs. However his brother [player_tooltip player_id='2812147' first='Scott' last='Bylund'] looks poised for a big year and he'll look to help them return to state. The Spartans also have a scrappy guard in Snowdon Bear Williams, and he's a playmaker on both ends of the court. Expect them to be a tough duo to outduel. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>3. Dayton - </em></strong>At the moment it looks like Dayton should be another team to watch out for in 3A. Both of last year's captains, Issac Powell and [player_tooltip player_id='2367954' first='Talan' last='Brown'] return. They also have a number of other class of 2026's on their roster who will likely step into larger roles as seniors. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
