OUTLOOK
The Meeker Bulldogs step into the season with confidence and stability under first year head coach Brett Thomas. With nearly the entire roster returning and an impressive summer of development behind them the Bulldogs believe they have the pieces to take a major step forward in Class 3A play.
Senior guard Aiden Hessman (6-2) headlines the team after averaging more than thirteen points last season. He is an explosive athlete who attacks the rim defends multiple positions and carries the intensity that defines Meeker style. Senior forward Castin Schafer (6-4) provides double digit rebounding interior scoring and consistent physicality while senior guard Spencer Dirk (6-0) gives the Bulldogs outside shooting and strong decision making.
A deep senior class has embraced the responsibility of leading the team both on the floor and in the weight room. Junior forwards Brady Wahpepah (6-6) and Elijah Dushack (6-5) bring length and interior strength helping Meeker match up with larger opponents. Several guards continue to develop and bring energy and depth that will be valuable in longer games. Look for players like Bryce Bussell (5-9, Sr.), Brodey Manning (5-9, Sr.), Tristan Bynam (5-9, Sr.), Bryce Pearcy (6-0, Jr.), and Maverick Herring (6-1, So.) to find their way to the court this season.
Other players to watch include Jace Bias (6-0, Sr.), Ryker Whittenburg (Sr.), Daython Lawson (5-7, So.), Hunter Harness (6-1, So.), and Cadyn Thomas (5-10, Fr.).
