WELCOME TO HOOPS 2015-16

Change in the air, even for us H

ey there, basketball fans.

Welcome to the 2015-16 season.

Wait, already? No way!

Didn’t school just start, like, yesterday?

And where are the dulcet words from Dan Woessner that usually grace this page?

Well, this winter is going to be a season of change for a lot of teams around the Sauk Valley, so why not switch up this column, too?

Actually, the reason for my ugly mug gracing this page has everything to do with some changeover in our department. With Dan, our guiding hand for the past several years, moving on to greener pastures (and

finding eternal glory at the end of the season.

We’re kind of in the same boat here at SVM. We’ll spend the early part of the season making up for a huge missing piece, then spend the middle of the season adjusting to whichever new face fills those big shoes. Hopefully by the time February and March roll around, we’ll be humming like a finely-tuned engine in time to cover a team (or two or three) that’s also running like a well-oiled machine in a deep postseason run.

But even with all the changes, some things will stay the same this season. There will be several familiar names that you’ll read about

in this preview edition – Division-I recruits in Dixon’s Isaiah Roby (Nebraska) and Newman’s Noah McCarty (Northern Illinois); multi-sport standouts like Sterling’s Sterling Thornton and Rock Falls’ Logan Pillars; veteran leaders like Erie’s Rachel Cobert and Fulton’s Averi Leitzen – just to name a few.

There will also be some familiar bylines in our sports section, and we’ll still be writing the game stories and feature articles and preview pieces about those high schoolers, veteran and rookie, that you’ve come to expect from our awardwinning staff.

So, just like the players who will take to the

courts all around the Sauk Valley area, we’ll do our best to keep things running smoothly, as another era begins.

And I can guarantee we’re all looking forward to the challenge of bringing you the best local coverage we can, just like the players are looking forward to putting forth their best effort every time they step on the hardwood.

In sticking with the playing card theme, we’re all dealt a hand, and we’ll play it to the best of our ability.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy finding out the answers to a preseason full of questions.

I know I’ll enjoy the journey the next few months.
