Shady Tigers Recall Five-Lettermen For Opener
Coach Willie Chandler brings a 17-man Shady squad into the season with five returning lettermen. Jerry Richmond at about 6-1 may start at center with Cecil Bryant and Jack Richmond in the lineup. Robinson and Green are expected starters, while height may be sacrificed for youth. Howard Thomas stands 6-1 and will be used under the boards. The Tigers fear limited height but emphasize defense, zone press, and scrappy play as they open the schedule with Dec games including Richwood and Stratton.
