Coach Mike Healy.

Last year 16-11, 7-7, fourth in the DuPage Valley Conference; lost 53-41 to West Aurora in the Class 4A Naperville Central regional semifinals.

Top players Reilly O'Toole, jr., G; Derek Babb, sr., G/F; Will Dolatowski, sr., F; Greg McAndrew, sr., G; Jason Schuman, jr., F; Travis Kern, jr., G; Kevin Bridges, jr., G; Ryan Farrar, sr., G.

Scouting report The Tigers are used to this, but another playoff run by the football team will delay the arrival of five of the basketball team's top eight players. The list includes O'Toole, an All-Area pick last year after he averaged 13 points and hit a county-high 83 3s. The football season cost the Tigers one of their top post players when Dan Hohenstein went down with a knee injury. Babb, a fourth-year varsity player who returns 8 points and 5 rebounds, has the talent and savvy to compete anywhere on the court. Dolatowski and McAndrew hit a combined 56 3s, creating a wealth of perimeter opportunities. It make take a while to jell, but the Tigers have the pieces to compete for a DVC title. "Whoever we put on the court will be a threat offensively," Healy said.
