High Point College basketball outlook for coming season
The capsule notes weaker offense than last year with no big scorer like Sewell. Defense is stronger and more aggressive, speed has potential but may slow at times. Rebounding down due to less height, but durability from Nolan Guzinski and Sechrist could offset. Record remains unpredictable.
