It’s tipoff time for the basketball teams at Butler County High School. The Bears and Lady Bears will see their seasons start this week and both teams will hit the hardwood this year with plenty of new faces and expectations for the upcoming season.
Coach Christy Clark will enter her third season as Lady Bears' head coach with plenty of returning firepower, but without several players from last year’s team that went 10-18 and made a trip to the Girl’s 3rd Region Tournament. All told Coach Clark lost 5 players from the 2010-11 Lady Bears squad, including three starters.
