Coach Fred Castro’s team struggled in his first season, after a couple of 20+ win seasons under Tory Verdi. The biggest reason for the struggle was the inability to put the ball in the basket. The shooting percentages from last season hurt my soul. However, there is some room for optimism.
Even though the Eagles finished the season 6-25 and needed overtime in their only conference win, the defense was solid. They only gave up 70.7 points while playing in the tough West division. A lot of those points came after the team got frustrated from not scoring many points.
