Southern Tier Sports Report
The high school basketball season kicks off today when the Edison boys’ basketball team hosts Southern Cayuga in a non-league matchup.

While the Spartans are coming off a one-win season a year ago, they return a strong group of seniors and juniors as they look for more this season.

EDISON BOYS’ BASKETBALL
Head Coach: Lenny Smith
Asst: Bill Reilly
Last Year: 1-18
Returning Athletes: Seniors: George Smith, Evan Bush, DeShon Cook, Juniors Blake Cobb, Riley Cobb, Landan Allen, Garrison Balash.
Coaches thoughts on returners: Seniors need to take on a true leadership role with this team lead by example, I believe Captains Smith and Bush can do this.  All others need to help contribute on both ends of the floor.
Newcomers: Jaden Cota, Kyle Walborn, Drew Slaven, Talon LaPlante, Dustin Morgan
Coaches thoughts on newcomers: Need to provide solid minutes whether as a starter or off the bench, defend and rebound.
Coaches thoughts on the team: Hoping for a return to sectionals after a couple of down years, we need to have leadership on both ends of the floor to be successful.
