The super sophomore 6’7″ SF Julian Strawther will try to lead his team to Victory. It will take a balanced attack from his Supporting Cast to get his team the win. 2018 6’3″ SG Cameron Burist will need to play big and be very productive in this game. The dynamic freshman 6’4″ SG Jaden Hardy of Coronado is the key for his team. This young man has all the tools to be a very good player. He can score from all 3 levels, and apply pressure on his Defenders. The key for this team is to get everyone involved and play Under Control. Coronado has good size and very good athletes. This is a very intriguing matchup. This is an important game for both teams.

The leadership of 2018 6’3′ PG Marvin Coleman and 2019 6’5″SG Jace Roquemore is the key to the success of this team. They play very good defense as a team and run sets that gets everyone involved. As a team they will need to stay focused and take one game at a time.
Silverado is still a work-in-progress.

The Supporting Cast must be consistent on both ends of the floor for this team to be successful. Silverado does have the ability to be very sneaky and steal games from their opponents. If they are not prepared to play. just ask Coronado!
