Trojans Cap off Summer with Youth Hoop Camp

Share article

MARSHFIELD – Reigning Division IV Coach of the Year Kris Bador put a bow on a busy summer for his Trojan boys basketball program last week with his second Annual Twinfield-Cabot Youth Hoops Camp.

Bador, Lady Trojan head coach Jack Whalen, along with their coaching staffs, and current and former players hosted a well attended co-ed camp grades 3-8 last Monday to Thursday.

Bador’s young squad took the Trojan program back to the Barre Auditorium for the first time in nearly a decade last winter. He returns his entire team and then some next season and will be a title contender behind three time Vermont Outstanding Underclassmen selection Tej Stewart and leading scorer Eli Russell. He’ll also get the services of a healthy Sam Churchill and Sam McLane, along with the return of Omar Miksic-Knibb, who wowed fans on both the soccer pitch and the hardwood last season as just a freshman.

“Camp was great and huge thanks to all that helped out last week! It was a great summer for the program and I believe this group is read for the high expectations this coming winter. Tej and Eli have become better leaders on and off the court this summer, putting a lot of work into their games, and we’re proud of them as a staff. Omar has gained a lot of experience playing AAU for Green Mountain Select this summer and he’s going to surprise a lot of teams next season with how he’s developed his game. We wish all the student athletes a successful fall sports season and are counting down the days to get back in the gym this coming winter,” said Bador.
