High School Spotlight: Bloomington South Panthers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The High School Spotlight Series is back and we are excited to feature multiple teams throughout the state once again! The season is still a few months away, but it is never too early to look ahead at the high school season. We will be taking a look at some quick hitters, the top player(s), a potential breakout player, other roster members, and more for the upcoming season. For today's spotlight, we take a look at the Bloomington South Panthers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Quick Hitters</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Went 18-9 last season.</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Lost to Terre Haute North in Sectionals</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Head Coach J.R.

Together, they present a difficult matchup for opponents because of the size and versatility they bring to the floor. A true “Twin Towers” combination, this duo alone could win several games for the Panthers this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Potential Breakout Player: [player_tooltip player_id='1561042' first='Jack' last='Clark']<a href="https://prephoops.com/player/damauri-crosby/"></a></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A lot of eyes will be on the frontcourt of the Panthers, but in the backcourt there is an under-the-radar guard in the southern Indiana area. A true combo guard, Clark is a high-IQ player who can both pass and score at a solid level. He caught our attention over the summer, and he is another experienced piece of this Bloomington South team.<a href="https://prephoops.com/player/ronald-mosley/"></a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other Key Roster Members</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2822103' first='Nate' last='Lukes']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2821667' first='Dylan' last='Bailey']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2858524' first='Ezra' last='Douglas'] </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2470607' first='Rylan' last='Stikeleather'] </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2820640' first='Holden' last='Prall']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list -->
