TEAM PREVIEW:
Bishop Gorman has won five consecutive Nevada state titles, and it looks poised for a sixth straight as it returns Flo40 guard Charles O'Bannon Jr. along with a number of other key contributors from last season's championship squad. Alongside O'Bannon, backcourt mates PoPoola and Bey are the other returners who played a major role last year, while Jordan, Bradford, Kiley, and Howard will all see increased roles. Although Bishop Gorman lost its star big man, Zach Collins, the additions of Thomas and Cottrell will bolster the frontcourt play. Look for the Gaels to continue to remain in the national spotlight all season with this group.
