The 2009/2010 high school basketball season kicks off Monday the 16th as teams all across the state open their
first day of tryouts. Head coach Ron Kidd will be kicking off his 10th season at the helm of the storied Woodrow Wilson program as he looks to capture his
third state title.
The Eagles will have some new faces to go along with some returning ones this season. Gone are three year starters Ryan Powers, Michael Fortune, and Vashawn Wood along
with Isaiah Walton, Jordan Waldron, Justin Cook, and Darius Cook. The cupboard is not bare though. Returning are starters Curtis Estep(Sr.), Cameron Shannon (Soph.), and Phillip Grant (Jr.) along with
Joseph Anthony (6-6 jr.), Kuron Mitchell (jr.), and J.C. Pennington (Soph.). Woodrow also had an exceptional junior varsity squad and some good incoming freshmen to go along with the returning players.
Woodrow finished 20-6 last year after a 58-47 loss to eventual champion Martinsburg in the semi-finals of the state tournament. The Eagles open up regular season action December 22nd as they hit
the road to face the Nitro Wildcats. All the rosters and the rest of the schedule will be posted as it becomes available in the next few weeks.
