McDaniels might be small in size but that doesn’t affect his game at all. McDaniels will look to be one of the go to guys this season for Head Coach John Combs. McDaniels transferred over to Westwood HS from Keenan HS who he played the June period with this past summer.

Marlowe 6’1 has really good length out at the point guard position. Marlowe will have a new coach this season in Ryan Walker leading the Chiefs. Marlowe will be counted on to lead the squad on the floor and in the scoring column. Marlowe plays under control at all times on the floor.and gets his stays very active in the passing lanes.
