Murphysboro Red Devils face rebuild with limited veterans
Murphysboro high school enters the season with only three returning lettermen from last year’s 26 3 squad. Coach Tom Ashman notes the team is rebuilding, relying on Kellum Bankhead and Renzaglia plus four untested seniors to fill guard and forward spots. Openers host Meridian and visit Carbondale as conference play looms in the Southwest Egyptian.
