The WCS Varsity Boys Basketball program has earned a reputation of consistently developing highly-skilled, competitive, and dedicated basketball players. Fourth year Head Coach Russell Carr is committed to providing his athletes with superior training and expects they adhere to three key principles. Servant Leadership, Championship Effort, and Team Attitude challenge both the players and coaches to find ways to "serve our teammates by giving our whole self and striving to be excellent in all we do.”
The Wildcats outstanding performance last year, finishing 16th overall in the state of Texas, 67th in the nation and with a final record of 37-2, has led to opportunities to play on the national stage. Coach Carr credits “hard work and a refusal to lose mentality,” for the success last year’s squad was able to achieve. “We did everything as a team,” he said, “and we were never really interested in the score; we just wanted to be good at the game.”
Returning three key players in power forward and University of South Alabama commit, Delvin Dickerson, and guards Julius Mitchell and Arta Turner, the team will travel to tournaments in West Virginia, Missouri, and Hawaii to compete against basketball powerhouses from around the country. Notable transfers L.J. Rose, who is ranked the #12 point guard in the nation for the class of 2012 and signed to Baylor University, Devon Turk, Brandon Jones, and Darin Minniefield will add depth to the Wildcat roster.
