What does St. Xavier need to do to improve in 2009/2010? What do they need to keep doing to be successful? Remember, please be constructive.

I think X will be solid and if they are hitting the three could upset some teams but I don't think they will be in the top 6 in the region.

 

Butcher is a solid guard and should be their best player. I'm not sure how effective they will be in the middle but they have a nice group of guards.

With teams like Eastern,J'town,Ballard,Male,and Seneca returning,on paper,very strong teams,and Manual and Trinityalso having solid rosters,it would indeed be very difficult for X to be a top 6 team in the 7th region.Brian Gunter has graduated and the big man play will be an area to watch.

All that being said,X should have a very competitive team.

Barring a 3rd quarter blitz by a certain player, St. X would have been in the regionals this past season. Gunter was a player that developed just before his senior year on sheer hard work. He'll be missed.

Don't underestimate Coach Klein!! He is an outstanding young coach. I coached against him when he was at Waggener and I always left very impressed by the job he did. He might not have the talent that some of the other teams have but I think they will upset a couple of those top teams. They definitely will be competitive with even the best teams in the 7th.
