Louisville Leopards Boys Varsity Basketball 2015

We return a large portion of our team from last year’s 20-4 NBC Champs. The Leopards were 14-0 in the NBC last year and this year’s seniors are a combined 65-0 in the NBC when playing together since 7th Grade.

The team will be led by Ashland Commit Drew Noble who averaged a Double/Double last year and 2 other senior captains Jake Adams and Jacob Pukys. Depth and competition will be this years team’s strength along with great team chemistry.

The Leopards have boosted their non-league schedule to an amazing level. The Leopards have always played a great schedule with non-league wins over Lake (3 times), North Canton Hoover and Barberton (2 times) during Coach Siegfried’s tenure but this year’s schedule is second to none. The Leopards will play St. Ignatius, Canton McKinley, Lake, North Canton Hoover, Boardman, Green, Perry and Massillon. Eight Division I games!

The Leopards are working hard to assimilate all the football players into basketball shape in a short period of time. Look for Leopards to keep improving throughout the season and be ready for the tournament.
