Mike Chaffee and the boys basketball team will be returning to the Navy Gym very soon.

Head Coach: John Conrad (9th season)

Assistant coaches: Brian Corrado, Zach Quigley, Sean Hillsey

Last year: 9-13 (4-8 league) made district playoffs

Notable losses: AJ Mitchell, Tali McIver (Montgomery County), Solomon Robinson

Key returners: Kolby Barrow,  6’0, senior guard, Michael Chaffee, 5’11, senior guard, Matthew Swanson, 6’6, senior center

Others to watch: Rob Carangi, 6’6, junior forward, Josh Jones, 6’4, junior forward, Joe Larkins, 5’9, sophomore guard

Strengths: 4 returning players with varsity experience and decent size

Weaknesses: Chemistry will take some time as we incorporate multi-sport athletes new to the program

Outlook: “We hope to be in a position to compete for the conference title and earn a spot in the district playoffs. We have a lot of new faces in the program so it’ll be a challenge getting everyone on the same page and ready to compete,” Coach Conrad said.
